Oh, that familiar body ache the way I break
I talk too much, we stayed up late
And the color of your shirt, made me wanna cry
And I never understood the phrase, "It's just phase"
This medicine you need to taste
When all I hear, "Is have fun wastin' your time"

I'm not the one and it's not somethin' I can change
No, it's not love, it's just the comfort of its name

So I tried to leave
and he got on his knees and said, "Fuck you, "
After losing sleep disappointing me
with the songs he'd never heard of and nor did he want to
Had no flame, and I tried to blame the perfume
Left on his counter, and if I'd have found her
would it have been true?
Could it have been true?

Oh, that peculiar summer break, I stayed awake
I thought too much of my mistakes
And the color of my walls made me wanna die
But I never understood the point in throwin' coins
in wishing wells to fix my choice
When all we had to do was say our goodbyes

You're not the one, and it's not somethin' I can change
No, it's not love, it's just the comfort of its name

So I tried to leave
and he got on his knees and said, "Fuck you, "
After losing sleep disappointing me
with the songs he'd never heard of and nor did he want to
Had no flame, and I tried to blame the perfume
Left on his counter, and if I'd have found her
would it have been true?
Could it have been true?

Thank God, I got my twenties
We didn't get married
At least I'm not forty and cursing our bedsheets
Wishin' I'd left you, wishin' you'd left me
Probably cryin', I'd probably hate you
And though I'm unemployed, tryna find some joy
At least I'm not forty and screwin' the pool boy
Stayin' for the children, might even resent them
We could've been true
It could've been you

So I tried to leave
and he got on his knees and said, "Fuck you, "
After losing sleep disappointing me
with the songs he'd never heard of and nor did he want to
Had no flame, and I tried to blame the perfume
Left on his counter, and if I'd have found her
would it have been true?
(It could've been you)
So I tried to leave
and he got on his knees and said, "Fuck you, "
(It could've been you)
After losing sleep disappointing me
with the songs he'd never heard of and nor did he want to
(It could've been you)
Had no flame, and I tried to blame the perfume
Left on his counter, and if I'd have found her
would it have been true?
Left on his counter, and if I'd have found her
could it have been true?

If you weren't a liar and I'd have been kinder
it could've it have been you, yeah
