lyrics

I'd wait for you but I think you're over it
Nothing I could do would be enough
I'd look for you but I can't handle it
The ghost of you just hurts my heart too much

Five reasons that your parents said
That I was a man of little consequence
Four thousand miles from my house to yours
Three weeks spent sleeping on your floor
Two years following a dream that ends
With a few cold lines of chat messages
I don't care if you keep the ring
But I don't want you to send it back to me

Why do I care, why do I give a shit
I was never gonna save you from your fear
I'd take you back if you could swim a bit
I'm not gonna drown in someone else's tears

Five reasons that your parents said
That I was only gonna be your friend
Four thousand miles flying to your door
Three weeks spent lying on your floor
Two nights in the mountains of Tennessee
Dreaming you were coming home to me
I don't care if you keep the ring
But I don't want you to forget me
