Aly & AJ - Potential Break Up Song Lyrics
It took too long
It took too long
It took to long for you to call back
And normally I would just forget that
Except for the fact it was my birthday
My stupid birthday
I played along
I played along
I played along it rolled right off my back
Obviously my armor was cracked
What kind of boyfriend would forget that?
Who would forget that?
The type of guy who doesn’t see
What he has until she leaves
Don’t let me go
Cuz without me, you know you’re lost
Wise up now or pay the cost
So you will know
You’re not livin’ till you’re livin’
Livin’ with me
You’re not winnin’ till you’re winnin’
Winnin’ me
You’re not gettin’ till you’re gettin’
Gettin’ to me
You’re not livin’ till you’re livin’
Livin’ for me
This is the potential breakup song
Our album needs just one
Oh baby please
Please tell me
We got along
We got along
We got along until you did that
Now all I want is just my stuff back
Do you get that?
Let me repeat that
I want my stuff back
You can send it in a box
I don’t care just drop it off
I won’t be home
Cuz without me, you know you’re lost
Minus you I’m better off
So you will know
You’re not livin’ till you’re livin’
Livin’ with me
You’re not winnin’ till you’re winnin’
Winnin’ me
You’re not gettin’ till you’re gettin’
Gettin’ to me
You’re not livin’ till you’re livin’
Livin’ for me
You can try, you can try
You know I know it’d be a lie
Without me you’re gonna cry
So you better think clearly, clearly
Before you nearly, nearly
Mess up the situation that your gonna miss dearly, dearly
C’mon
You’re not livin’ till you’re livin’
Livin’ with me
You’re not winnin’ till you’re winnin’
Winnin’ me
You’re not gettin’ till you’re gettin’
Gettin’ to me
You’re not livin’ till you’re livin’
Livin’ for me
This is the potential breakup song
Our album needs just one
Oh baby please
Please tell me
This is the potential break-up song
Just admit you’re wrong
Which will it be?
Which will it be?

i like a guy, but he haz a girlfriend, and another girl who is my friend likes him
we are having our first school dance soon, and he is already goin with someone
help
September 30th, 2007 at 3:28 am
just ask him to go to the dance with you.
you have nothing to lose, life is too short for regrets.
wear something nice, look into his eyes and don’t be shy.
good luck !
and don’t forget to let us know how it went!
October 1st, 2007 at 6:27 pm
well, i cant really dress nice, because its a halloween dance.
and i cant really ask him to dance, because he is one of my best friends, and i think he’s getting hints that i like him
HELP!!

This is a really catchy song! I love it! I was at my sister’s house the other day baby-sitting my nephew, and he was watching the video (He’s 9 months), and he started yelling at it this, “Baba, lick!” I think he liked it! So, I played it again, and he started yelling again laughing and smiling. It was soooo cute! Aly and Aj are soooo awesome, and I love the rhythm to their songs. It’s sooo cool how they just are regular people, but still, famous. Aly and Aj, here’s a shoutout to you, “I love you! Please start making some more songs!! Yeah! Okay, bye!”
Sincerely,
Dizzy
