| I see you around,
|
| that ring around your finger says you’re better now.
|
| I tried to find the words to say
|
| without letting regret
|
| get the best of me.
|
| Fell for you
|
| that summer on the east coast.
|
| Up till dawn just doin what we want.
|
| Standing there
|
| with nothin but my shirt on.
|
| Got me tongue tied
|
| just looking at you.
|
| Though many come and go,
|
| well it’s just not the same.
|
| Comfort you’ll never know,
|
| Baby, you’re not to blame.
|
| I shoulda married you,
|
| you shoulda carried my name.
|
| Feels like I buried youth,
|
| looks like you did the same.
|
| It’s been years now,
|
| and the last time that we spoke
|
| my head was in the clouds.
|
| These letters that I’ll never send,
|
| no matter how they start,
|
| I always know how they end.
|
| Talk to me, girl, what am I supposed to do?
|
| I’m just a little caught up
|
| in overcoming you.
|
| Memories in the night that I can’t shake.
|
| Polaroid’s in my bed
|
| reflecting better days.
|
| Fell for you
|
| that summer on the east coast.
|
| Up till dawn just doin what we want,
|
| Up all night,
|
| just talking bout our future.
|
| And if we run,
|
| we’ll have each other’s back.
|
| Though many come and go,
|
| well it’s just not the same
|
| comfort you’ll never know.
|
| Baby, you’re not to blame,
|
| I shoulda let you know.
|
| Though you drive me insane,
|
| made me a better man.
|
| Words I’ll take to my grave.
|
| I remember the way you said my name
|
| and how your hands started to shake.
|
| Your face was melting in the rain, whoa oh.
|
| Leaning up the hood against my car,
|
| Speaking softly in the night.
|
| Under barely visible stars,
|
| under barely visible stars.
|
| Stuck on you,
|
| that summer on the east coast.
|
| Up till dawn
|
| thinking I was wrong.
|
| Why can’t I erase you?
|
| I tried to replace you,
|
| but I’m hearing her in every song.
|
| Though many come and go,
|
| well it’s just not the same
|
| comfort you’ll never know.
|
| Baby, you’re not to blame.
|
| Shoulda ran after you,
|
| chasing your car through the rain.
|
| The tears that clouded your eyes,
|
| now I’m just screaming at your grave.
|
| You should’ve carried my name.
|
| You could’ve carried my name. |
