Lyrics for Everything He Couldn’t
Song by Chase Matthew

[Verse 1]
I wanna be your rock that you can depend on
Even when the ground might shake
I wanna be the one to wipe away your tears
Sayin’ everything will be okay
I know you’ve been hurt by what he mighta said
I’m just sayin’ that ain’t what you deserve
Just give me one night to pick up where you left
‘Cause he still has a lot to learn

[Chorus]
Girl, you could do better
Than what you got goin’ on right now
I’m talkin’ ’bout forever
So, baby, just hear me out
Oh, he mighta ran you down, put you through the wringer
Damn sure won’t put a ring on your finger
Tore you apart, but I know what I’m doin’
Let me do everything he couldn’t
Everything he couldn’t

[Verse 2]
I wanna meet your mom
Kick it on the porch, drinkin’ beer with your dad
I wanna see the stars in the bed of my truck
Even when your day’s been bad
I know you’ve been thinkin’ ’bout what he’s been doin’
But he ain’t up to no good

[Chorus]
Girl, you could do better
Than what you got goin’ on right now
I’m talkin’ ’bout forever
So, baby, just hear me out
Oh, he mighta ran you down, put you through the wringer
Damn sure won’t put a ring on your finger
Tore you apart, but I know what I’m doin’
Let me do everything that he couldn’t

[Bride]
Oh, and he won’t make you smile
He can’t make you laugh
He don’t pray for you, girl
He never had your back
He don’t care if you know ’bout what he’s doin’
Let me do everything he couldn’t

[Chorus]
You could do better
Than what you got goin’ on right now
I’m talkin’ ’bout forever
So, baby, just hear me out
Oh, he mighta ran you down, put you through the wringer
Damn sure won’t put a ring on your finger
Tore you apart, but I know what I’m doin’
Let me do everything he couldn’t
[Outro]
Everything he couldn’t
Girl, you deserve better
Tell me everything he couldn’t
