Something Like This

(album: On The Other Side Of Here - 2021)

I tried to give you what you wanted
That was clearly not enough
At the start, we felt so perfect
But then something broke between us
It was if we were just a rumor
Just a fleeting fantasy
You broke down my defenses
And then you abandoned me

And so I never wanna go through
Something like this again
Looking back I have to say
I misjudged you (I misjudged you)
And I never wanna love someone
The way that I loved you
I always end up bleeding through
I never wanna go through
Something like this again

It was you who first approached me
With open arms so pure
You took me in then turned me down
And I've never felt so hurt

That's why I never wanna go through
Something like this again (never, never)
Looking back I have to say
I misjudged you (I misjudged you)
And I never wanna love someone (no, I never)
The way that I loved you
I always end up bleeding through
I never wanna go through
Something like this again

And if I overwhelmed you
It's too late to change that now (I can't change that)
The one thing I've learned
Is that we must protect ourselves

And so I never wanna go through
Something like this again
Looking back I have to say
I misjudged you (I misjudged you)
And I never wanna love someone (no, I never)
The way that I loved you (I loved you)
I always end up bleeding through (oh)
I never wanna go through
Something like this again

I tried to give you what you wanted
That was clearly not enough
