All the Other Lovers

Is it the right thing at the wrong time?

High-end whiskey when you want wine

You can waste a lot of time like that

And you can never get it back

And it's a hard thing at a hard time

You're in your 20s and you change your mind

About what matters most

It's hard to lose someone when you've grown close, but

I just wanna be in a place where I can confidently say

All the other lovers were just paving the way

All the other lovers were just paving the way

It's a complicated lifestyle

Loving someone for a little while

Then asking to fade to friends

What an unreasonable request

And bearing my soul to you

And just walking away from you

Like I wouldn't be permanently changed by you

But I just wanna be in a place where I can confidently say

All the other lovers were just paving the way

All the other lovers were just paving the way

All the other lovers were just paving the way

All the other lovers were just paving the way
