You're up in your head
Thinking about him thinking about you thinking about all the things you could have said
Second guessing
Over and over
All the decisions you made
Questioning if this is all worth the struggle
Maybe you should just give in and call him over

But he ain’t thinking about you like that
He’s driving to work, calling his friends, and making sure he’s got the best **** football stats
You’re twirling inside your own head
Reminiscing all of those memories
So hard to forget all those long long nights
But at the end of the day just remember
Losing time over him is just another mistake

Up till 11 PM tossing and turning
Wondering what he’s doing now
Getting mad at your self
It’s been so long why does he keep creeping back in
When the loneliness keeps you up like that
And all you want to do is curl on up
Tell yourself

He ain’t think about you like that
He’s talking to his mama, shooting hoops, and wondering if his lunch break is coming round soon
You’re twirling inside your own head
Reminiscing all of those memories
So hard to forget all those long long nights
But at the end of the day just remember
Losing time over him is just another mistake

But what’s worse
Whatcha can’t get out of your head
What if all those memories that you can’t undo that just creep on up in the middle of the afternoon
What if the kisses, the smiles, the tears, and the sweet helloes are all gone to waste
What keeps me up and up and up
What if he’s thinking about someone else

Cause he ain’t think about me like that
He’s ain’t talking to me about his mama, his friends, or his long *** day
He's twirling inside my head
Reminiscing all of those memories
So hard to forget all those long long nights
But at the end of the day just remember
Losing time over him is just another mistake
