How did it come and go
So quickly
The skipping beat
Of a pond
I think often about it
And often I don't
It's all wavering differently in my mind now.

Never meant to hurt you
Break you
Mama tells me no poor man is ever gonna make me happy
But I don't need to listen
I don't need to listen.

Nobody gonna fully get it
Gave you everything I had
But I see you for what you were now.

We slept under the hyde of an animal
Snoring into an oblivion
I can't wake up knowing
You aren't a part of my everyday
Anymore now
And I'm okay with that fate
But I don't need you remindin' me

It's not comforting to me
That you doin' the things we did
The I miss you I love you phase
Is no longer helpful
So I had to say go your own way now baby.

We thought we had it all
I think for a second
Remember when we first started loving
And you woke up to me in the throws
Of your window sunshine?

That will never happen again.

I believe deep in my soul
That you threw it all away

And I'm glad you did.
