VERSE 1: 10 past 12 sitting criss-cross on the floor Scrolling through photos from way before Got my head missing how we used to be Wishing I could see you just to say that CHORUS: You can think it through I just Can’t get over you oh How do I keep you from slipping through my hands? I don’t think you want it as Bad as you know I do How do I keep you from slipping through my hands? VERSE 2: Talked till 3, spent the night in your Accord Wrapped in my jacket to keep you warm Woke to see it was more than just a dream Wishing I could see you just the same but CHORUS: You can think it through I just Can’t get over you oh How do I keep you from slipping through my hands? I don’t think you want it as Bad as you know I do How do I keep you from slipping through my hands? POST CHORUS: Oh, oh, oh Oh how do I keep you? BRIDGE: I want I want you to be Happy even without me What I’d give to make you feel alright so CHORUS: You can think it through I just Can’t get over you oh How do I keep you from slipping through my hands? I don’t think you want it as Bad as you know I do How do I keep you from slipping through my hands? POST CHORUS: Oh, oh, oh Oh how do I keep you? CHORUS: You can think it through I just Can’t get over you oh How do I keep you from slipping through my hands? I don’t think you want it as Bad as you know I do How do I keep you from slipping through my hands?

VERSE 1: Twenty-five You thought by now you might figure out How to live a happy, healthy life But sometimes you hear those same old lies VERSE 2: Make believe Sometimes it feels like you’re in a dream And I can see that your lungs can breathe But you’re just praying it won’t up and leave PRE-CHORUS: You’re lying awake Tears stained on your face Can’t love what you hate But deep down you know what I know That you didn’t find, you didn’t find, you didn’t find love that way CHORUS: Oh you’ve been gone For way too long Our vision blurred now But I feel you strong Where do we go? How do we move on? ‘Cause I won’t let you lose you Yeah you, you know I POST CHORUS: That I won’t, won’t That I won’t, won’t That I won’t That I won’t let you lose you VERSE 3: Patiently You feel you’re stuck somewhere in between The way it seems and what’s meant to be Wondering how this could go differently PRE-CHORUS: You’re lying awake Tears stained on your face Can’t love what you hate But deep down you know what I know That you didn’t find, you didn’t find, you didn’t find love that way CHORUS: Oh you’ve been gone For way too long Our vision blurred now But I feel you strong Where do we go? How do we move on? ‘Cause I won’t let you lose you Yeah you, you know I POST CHORUS: That I won’t, won’t That I won’t, won’t That I won’t That I won’t let you lose you END CHORUS: I know that you know you’ll find What you thought you left behind But always I swear that I Won’t let you lose you I know that you know you’ll find What you thought you left behind But always I swear that I Won’t let you lose you

VERSE 1: You were my best friend But five years down that road to find it was a dead end And I still get your texts but you’re not getting the message You said see you tomorrow But I’m waking up on the coast and you’re in Utah Is this working out how you thought, you thought? CHORUS: You know I’m not okay, I’m not okay But you still Hit me the same as back when we were Something Turned into nothing, that wasn’t love Oh I, oh I, know I Can’t say I don’t, I don’t mind POST CHORUS: ‘Cause what you’re asking for ain’t cheap And see the problem is that you don’t know me You say that you feel me But I think that you’re just feeling lonely, oh I I tried so hard, but you moved on so baby honestly Oh I, know I Can’t say I don’t, I don’t VERSE 2: And I hate that it’s not how it was When we both ran away to the Cape for a month but Just some things you can’t save when you want them Left it behind now you’re looking for something You told me it was over but I saw your caller ID When you hit me on Wednesday I don’t need to hear what your friends say, friends say CHORUS: You know I’m not okay, I’m not okay But you still Hit me the same as back when we were Something Turned into nothing, that wasn’t love Oh I, oh I, know I Can’t say I don’t, I don’t mind POST CHORUS: ‘Cause what you’re asking for ain’t cheap And see the problem is that you don’t know me You say that you feel me But I think that you’re just feeling lonely, oh I I tried so hard, but you moved on so baby honestly Oh I, know I Can’t say I don’t, I don’t mind Can’t say I don’t, I don’t mind Can’t say I don’t, I don’t mind Can’t say I don’t mind
