Took Me Till Now

(album: Adelaide, And The Places I Can't Go Back To - 2023)

We put our cards done on the table
While all my shit's thrown out on your lawn
It was love and it was hate
And for a while it was great
Now it's gone
A little youth, a lot of booze
And too much growing up to do
You slammed the door
But I don't blame you anymore

We were up so high
There was nowhere to go but down
(Nowhere to go but, Nowhere to go but)
Driving by your house
But there's somebody else there now
(Somebody else, there's somebody else there)
Well, you were right when you left
And said "you gotta get over yourself"
(Gotta get over, gotta get over)
I was up so high
There was nowhere to go but down
I finally figured it out...
It just took me till now

Now It's 11 past 11
What the hell am I still hanging on for?
I was yours, you were mine
We had our time but darling I just want more
I miss the view on top of you
I'm taking pills to get me through
Please help me lord
So I don't hate you
I don't hate you
I don't hate you anymore

We were up so high
There was nowhere to go but down
(Nowhere to go but, Nowhere to go but)
Driving by your house
But there's somebody else there now
(Somebody else, there's somebody else there)
Well, you were right when you left
And said "you gotta get over yourself"
(Gotta get over, gotta get over)
I was up so high
There was nowhere to go but down
I finally figured it out...
It just took me till now
