lyrics

I can tell you used to feel all alone like it wasn’t real
all the colors left the world the day you woke up without her
you remember every morning until it ended without warning
every night you hope you wake up to her sleeping in her makeup
cause that would mean you had a big night
And she doesn’t like to fight
So you just went to bed
And you tried to forget

All the things that you know she noticed
you’d rather rewrite it than own it
Maybe we all blot the truth out and tell ourselves it would’ve worked out

so you had a big fight
said you didn’t get the words right
told her that you misspoke
but you know she knows you know

you meant every word you said and you both know why she left
Cause it wasn’t ever love
It was just good enough

I could tell you couldn't feel something that could have been real
I can’t put you back together
If we both know you can’t forget her
so let’s go have a big night
it doesn’t have to be just right
We don’t have to be in love
It can just be good enough.
