Lyrics

I never thought I'd see the day
You and your family moved away
You left without saying goodbye
Cardboard boxes of stuff
Loaded onto the truck
Parked at the end of your drive
It's strange how an empty house
Can bring all the memories out my head
That I thought I repressed
Now I guess I'll never see you again
Wanna re-do every day since you left me worn out and stressed
You got what you wanted from me
And now I'm in misery
'Cause I know I can't compete with the guys you moved onto
I think about you all the time, it's not like I want to
Hopelessly trying to convince myself that I'm better off without you
But the truth is I want you
And how can you say you don't see me that way
When you're the one that started all this?
You made me let my guard down
Then ripped out my heart
Now I'm in pieces
'Cause I know I can't compete with the guys you moved onto
I think about you all the time, it's not like I want to
Hopelessly trying to convince myself that I'm better off without you
But the truth is I want you
To stay right here by my side
Hate the happiness I see in your eyes
How can you be with him
When I was only beginning
To heal after all this time?
I know I can't compete with the guys you moved onto
I think about you all the time, it's not like I want to
Hopelessly trying to convince myself that I'm better off
I'm better off
I know I can't compete with the guys you moved onto
I think about you all the time, it's not like I want to
Hopelessly trying to convince myself that I'm better off without you
But the truth is I want you
To stay right here
Just stay right here
When you're in your new bedroom
I'll finish writing you a tune
And hope it finds its way to you
