The Good Parts

The way you turned to me in bed

And the way you said

"Can I have my spot?"

Put your head against my chest

Asked me to rub your neck

Put on British Bake Show or some other stupid show we'd watch

My hand on your knee

In the passenger seat

On the 101, driving just aimlessly

The way you turned to me and said

"Going anywhere with you's okay with me"

So much of us was perfect

And it's always what I think about first

How nice it could've been

If we only lived where our love works

Fossilize my heart

Tryna hold on to the good parts

Memorize you in my arms

Tryna hold on to the good parts

Can we separate the way it ended from the person?

Refuse to take to heart the things we said when we were hurting

I still think we mostly are

The good parts

The way you'd make up silly names for me I hated

But you'd call me all the time

The way you fell asleep beside me

In a hospital recliner

On the evening my appendix chose to die

In any kind of crisis

It's impossible I wouldn't run to you

We almost prophesied it on the day we met

Like we already knew

Fossilize my heart

Tryna hold on to the good parts

Memorize you in my arms

Tryna hold on to the good parts

Can we separate the way it ended from the person?

Refuse to take to heart the things we said when we were hurting

I still think we mostly are

The good parts

So much of us was perfect

And it's always what I think about first

How nice it could've been

If we only lived where our love works

Fossilize my heart

Tryna hold on to the good parts

Memorize you in my arms

Tryna hold on to the good parts

Can we separate the way it ended from the person?

Refuse to take to heart the things we said when we were hurting

I still think we mostly are

The good parts
