VERSE 1
Boy, let me go
Should've learned long ago that boys like you don't change
I'm not easy to give in, but I thought you were worth it
Well I'm wrong, wrong, wrong.
Boy, let me go
You've got a tough hold and I'm tryna pull away, but I don't.
A strong, quick glance, a boy I don't understand,
But I'd wait up all night to make this man feel right
PRE-CHORUS
He's cold to the touch but I just can't get enough
CHORUS
How am I supposed to know?
I let you in, can’t let you go / We both found what we were looking for
Tell me why I let you in, so you could bring me down again
It’s all a waste of time / Why don’t you apologise?
VERSE 2
There's a girl in your dreams but that girl isn't me
Do you see, do you see me at all?
Will you break her heart too,
Make her scared of what she's got to lose
Relive the fight I fought for you
PRE-CHORUS
Back and forth and back again,
Startin' to think it's all pretend.
BRIDGE
He's cold to the touch, but I just can't get enough
We're back and back again...

VERSE 1
Take me back to summer’s when all we had to do was forget, but I can’t with you
‘Cause you’ve got other girls on your mind, I was just there to pass the time, but I can’t help myself.
I don’t wanna be the one who has to spoil all the fun
But I can’t with you
Caught up in my head and sensible,
got me feeling so replaceable,
I can’t help myself.
CHORUS
Do you even know the way you got me outta control?
Do you even know the way you got me, but I gotta let it go.
VERSE 2
Pull me close and hold me tight, we don’t got much but we got tonight.
I call you out on all your lies, but you wake me up with sweet goodbyes…
You’re still the first to leave.
BRIDGE
You make it easy to not feel lonely…
And it feels so much better when you’re there!
And I don’t need to, need to need you.
But it feels so much better when you care.

could've been the one

VERSE 1
I saw two lovers walking the street today,
the way they looked at each other had me looking the other way.
And it was kinda funny, ‘cause I remember clearly the way you looked at me,
And I looked at her with jealousy.
CHORUS
‘Cause you could’ve been the one, but we both had to move on. You could’ve been the one.
VERSE 2
The smell of your hair, the sound of your voice makes me want you more.
But all that I know is when she goes home the arms she holds are yours.
And I know it’s dumb that I can’t move on, so I’ll keep quiet, but if I said I don’t want you, I’d be lying.
CHORUS
You could’ve been by my side, now I sit and wonder why. You could’ve been the one.
BRIDGE
And maybe I’ll wait up by my phone
But we both know we’re better off alone.
CHORUS.
No matter where I go, you make sure your ghost follows, You could’ve been the one.

suddenly

Verse 1
I want you in dark lit rooms, in nights of only us
I want jokes only we understand
Victory days and nights we don’t plan
And if being crazy and young is what you wanna do, then I’ll be crazy, but only with you.
Chorus
And suddenly I’m falling again
And I don’t know what makes it different, but it does
But it does
Verse 2
I know how to read your eyes
How little things can make it alright
Just come and pick me up
Just us is enough
And we don’t need the parties, just for you to hold me
Chorus
And suddenly I’m falling again
And I don’t know what makes it different, but it does
But it does
Bridge
Simple things like walking me home
And trying so hard when things come undone,
Oh, you make things so different.
Future plans that we shouldn’t make,
They say we’ll fall through but we do it anyway,
Oh, you make things so different.
Chorus
Suddenly I’m falling again
And I don’t know what makes it different, but it does
But it does

without me

VERSE 1
I don’t wanna point fingers anymore, all this back and forth, what’s it for?
Fire tough words to cover up you're hurt
I shouldn’t have to read between your lines.
CHORUS
But I see you everywhere and darling it’s not fair / they’re choosing sides like it’s a war, but you didn’t think we were worth fighting for
I see you in my dreams / I hope you dream of me
Don’t pretend my words were empty, like the world you left without me
VERSE 2
You tell it how you see and I just can’t believe that you fire tough words, even when I’m hurt.
I shouldn’t have to read between your lines.
BRIDGE
Call me out on what you made up / whatever I do, it’s not enough
Tell them I’m not the same.
Someone I’d give my life for brushed me off like they don’t care at all
Tell yourself what you need / Tell yourself without me.

come back

VERSE 1
Hold me, how you know
Don’t say a thing just come home
I want the world only if it’s yours too,
and all of my days to revolve around you.
CHORUS
I need your voice when I’m missing home,
And in my quietest I’ve never felt alone.
Don’t know if I’m enough,
but can you take me somewhere
no one else can touch?
VERSE 2
Your silence is perfect, too.
‘Cause I’ll just sit and stare at you.
If this is what they mean when they ‘jump in’.
Then just know I’m all in.
OUTRO
Hold me, you know how / don’t say a thing just come back.
