Playing on Repeat

I swear I heard you speak I swear you were whispering so sweet While you danced under the moonlight In my familiar fantasy I wanted you to stay beside me With every fever dream Where your memory rings out like notes played on every string You were my soundtrack Playing on repeat Every word you sang to me Always kept me hanging Until you find another reason to leave I hope you'll keep a part of me Tugging at your heartstrings Maybe at another place and time Is what you sold me As the last remaining promise that I know you wouldn't keep I let myself get carried away On the words that hold no weight It's funny how you changed The more I felt the same You were my soundtrack Playing on repeat Every word you sang to me Always kept me hanging Until you find another reason to leave I hope you'll keep a part of me Tugging at your heartstrings I'll tattoo a heart to my left arm So I'll never worry when I lose it all Over again And I'll pretend this hollow feeling Wasn't left with me at birth And now that I'm done accepting your worst This skipped beat will always be my curse Always be my curse You were my soundtrack that was Playing on repeat Every word you sang to me No longer leaves me hanging And I know you'll never keep a part of me And you'll never take the heart sewn On my sleeve
