Trying Not To Think About It Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You said it’s over now
Not tomorrow, not the next day, not any day
You said you’d figured out what can move me
Darling I figured that out too

[Verse 2]
Make no time for Tylenol, Salbutamol
Fuck my life, you cared when I was sick
No one ever gave a shit
You said you gave the world, I took it all
You fought this war, once I had asked me
“What am I doing this for?”

[Chorus]
It should’ve been you
Well now it’s you

[Verse 3]
Never been the one for romance
Never thought that I’d get married
Never been the kind to give a shared life a second glance
Selfish prosе, a lifestyle of a stained-glass window
Wondеr what colours and shapes I’ll throw
I look to the horizon, and all I ever saw was
A background for my phone

[Chorus]
It should’ve been you
A constant and the undiscovered you
Well now it’s you
What a perfect time for realisation

[Verse 4]
I’ll wake up early
I’ll watch the sunrise
I never liked the rain but sunshine
Hasn’t worked its charms of late
Call my mother, tell her I love her
You know I never had the guts to say
“I’ll dream of summer, I’ll dream of you and me
In that Coyote, lying out in the shade”
Just tell me one thing
When your heart finds its place, just take a step back and smile
When you’re sat in a better place

[Outro]
We could’ve kicked my ass together
We could’ve slapped my face together
We could’ve stitched my mind together
If only I knew what to say
We could’ve kicked my ass together
We could’ve slapped my face together
We could’ve stitched my mind together
So this is how I lose you
