Before I met you, I was beating black and blue
On my own, down about, going nowhere fast
Then you took my hand, gave my life a second chance
Put me off of the ledge, now I can't look back

There's a lot that I got wrong
Thank God, I got one thing right
'Cause I

I was born to lose, I was wasted, you
Tell me, what did I do to deserve you?
Must have Jesus fooled, I think God's confused
Tell me, what did I do to deserve you?

Now that life is great, and these are happier days
You still see the worry on my face
But it's nothing you say, and it's nothing you do
I'm just scared of losing you

There's a lot that I got wrong
Thank God, I got one thing right
'Cause I

I was born to lose, I was wasted, you
Tell me, what did I do to deserve you?
Must have Jesus fooled, I think God's confused
Tell me, what did I do to deserve you?

Ooh-ooh, ooh
To deserve you
Ooh-ooh
Tell me, what did I do to deserve you?

I'm not hopeless, I'm not a worthless
I'm not losing, I'm not broken
When I'm holding you right here next to me
Because
I think I'm the proof that a wasted youth
Can be fixed with a gift I can't earn you
But as long as you choose me
I'll show you what a man
Who was bruised can return to (I was born)

I was born to lose (I was born to)
I was wasted, you (I was wasted)
Tell me, what did I do to deserve you? (I was born)
Must have Jesus fooled (Must have Jesus fooled)
I think God's confused (I think God's confused)
Tell me, what did I do to deserve you? (To deserve you)

Ooh-ooh (What did I do?) , ooh
To deserve you
Ooh-ooh (What did I do?)
Tell me, what did I do to deserve you? (You)
