lyrics

I have been affected by the words you choose to say
You can think whatever you want but I don’t feel that way
Pour myself a drink, tell myself not to call
Try your phone again bracing for the fall
Forget that this is where I found myself before
Fooled me twice now, Take it all
I tried to hate you for a minute
Then I cry my eyes out when I’m finished
‘Cause my heart knows more now than it did
And it knows you will never be mine
I tried to lose you in the crowd
But my heart gave me away beating so loud
We work great on paper till you read it
I could get there someday but you don’t feel it
You can feel my arms wide open you don’t want that to change
You can feel me, and you like it, but that streets gotta go both ways
Pour myself a drink think of your face and go
Have to catch a breath our song is on the radio
Feel the heat on my neck erase it from my mind
I was a well but you drank me dry
I tried to hate you for a minute
Then I cry my eyes out when I’m finished
‘Cause my heart knows more now than it did
And it knows you will never be mine
I tried to lose you in the crowd
But my heart gave me away beating so loud
We work great on paper till you read it
I could get there someday but you don’t feel it
I don’t wanna let you go I don’t wanna learn to stay
You are my knight of cups and you’ve got a hold on me
I don’t wanna let you in, I don’t wanna be your friend
Both feet on the floor
I tried to hate you for a minute
Then I cry my eyes out when I’m finished
‘Cause my heart knows more now than it did
And it knows you will never be mine
I tried to lose you in the crowd
But my heart gave me away beating so loud
We work great on paper till you read it
I could get there someday but you don’t feel it
