Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Is it just me?

Or did we

Do this this the last time, we said it's the last time

Yeah, I'd be lyin'

If I said I been

Movin' on like I thought I'd be

[Verse 2]

I know it's wrong but it's how I feel

Already know it's a bad idea

I should take my own advice

I, I, but I still think about you, baby

[Verse 3]

I wish you didn't feel so right

I really wanna tell you I don't miss you and really mean it

I just can't though I want to

But I'm tryin' not to

Take back goodbye

Say I changed my mind

Been there before but

I'm tryin' not to

Call you tonight

But it's almost like

I miss you more when I'm tryin' not to

Yeah I'm tryin' not to

[Verse 4]

I don't want to

But I still want you

It's so perfect

It gets on my nerves, yeah

I tried so hard, ain't gettin' me far

Pushin' away just brings you even closer to me

[Verse 5]

Yeah, but I still think about you, baby

I wish you didn't feel so right

I really wanna tell you I don't miss you and really mean it

I just can't though I want to

But I'm tryin' not to

Take back goodbye

Say I changed my mind

Been there before but

I'm tryin' not to

[Verse 6]

Call you tonight

But it's almost like

I miss you more when I'm tryin' not to

Yeah, I'm tryin' not to

[Verse 7]

Maybe we could get it right this time

Yeah, or maybe I'm just lyin' to myself

To myself

But I'm tryin' not to

Yeah I'm tryin' not to

But I still think about you, baby

I wish you didn't feel so right

I really wanna tell you I don't miss you and really mean it

I just can't though I want to

But I'm tryin' not to

Take back goodbye

Say I changed my mind

Been there before but

I'm tryin' not to

[Verse 8]

Call you tonight

But it's almost like

I miss you more when I'm tryin' not to

Yeah, I'm tryin' not to

[Verse 9]

I'm tryin' not to

Yeah, I'm tryin' not to
