lyrics

Verse 1)
The other night I woke up in a cold sweat
Feeling out of my place in my own bed
How I'll ever heal I don't know heck you been gone for so long I ain't let you go yet

I rewind to the times we tried the rides we survived and why why why why why
Couldn't we make it work for the sake of yours and the sake of mine didn't want to say goodbye
I knew we coulda taken time
To make it right
but it's late and I got nothin but the pain inside knowin fate is my worst enemy (that could ever be)

I know you're getting ready bout to move on
I see you in your dress he's got a suit on
Stay up late I'm drinking and I'm on your page I'm creeping baby
Every picture kills me now cause you gone

Hook)
Oh I still see you
In my dreams when I sleep nothin I can do
Oh I still see you
when I'm awake in my memory it kills me too
Cause I know that you're happy now (happy now)
And you're never turning back around
I'm glad you found
Someone who can make you happy now (happy now)
You're never coming back around (never coming back around)

Verse 2)
How is it since I found your lips
Still taste em everyday no matter what I try
And I see your face when I wanna sleep like I got your portrait tattooed inside my eyelids
Wake up and I wish you were here (in my bed)
Wish you were near
Why I ain't got a tissue in here
Got a fistful of hair I just wish you would care ehh
Shit well if you aware

How I've been doing these days
Tryin to get you back is like makin a snowman in a heat wave
Ohh shoulda had my last name
Now you're taking his can't breathe or think about a damn thing
How was I supposed to know times up like fuck
you were closer to my family than I was
There ain't no combination of a right buzz
To make me feel fine cuz


Everytime I hear a lyric from back then
It punch me in the spirit and I ask what happened
I let you go, shoulda been grasping
Let you know how I shoulda been that's a little too little too late
Carved into boards from a broken home my fate and
All my tears spent thinking where the years went
let me be clear
I'm not over you dearest

Hook)
Oh I still see you
In my dreams when I sleep nothin I can do
Oh I still see you
when I'm awake in my memory it kills me too
Cause I know that you're happy now (happy now)
And you're never turning back around
I'm glad you found
Someone who can make you happy now (happy now)
You're never coming back around (never coming back around)

Verse 3)
I messed around I regret it now
I searched high and low you're the best I found
No extra pounds the best sex around
All I can think is what the F and how

Could I screw it up, be ruinin us
thought I knew it all I never knew enough
Because you still give me butterflies
greener grass ain't on the other side

No matter what I do ain't no new beginnings
Been to hell and back heard you in heaven
Get me a hammer crucifix and nails
I sobered up and the ship has sailed

Ohh I didn't appreciate
All of the ways that we'd be great

I don't even blame you I wish you no harm
I was mister wrong fuckin prince no Charm
Shits so hard and it's been depressin
The internet says you're a friend suggestion
If they only knew we could never be just friends
Know too much about each other never to touch and
Not fall right back into the same love
Were older now if you're game just say love
I'll be here if the day comes that would be what dreams are made of yea
