I've been trying not to think about it, I can't help it
I know you don't wanna hear from me, but I am selfish
It kills me inside you can drink on Friday nights
Not even pick up the phone
It amazes me you move on so easily
From someone that you once called home

I wish you had enough discipline for the both of us
Just because I don't know how to turn off the way I feel
I know you always fell out love so damn easily, but honestly
I don't think you ever had something real

Until you met me
Drinks in New York City
Ooh, you looked so pretty
Think I fell in love before I even knew your birthday
Kissed you on our first date
Somehow, I knew someday
This would hurt 'cause I could never let you go
Oh, I'll spend my whole life
Missing a part of me, part of me
Oh, I'll spend my whole life
Hoping your heart is free, heart is free

I've been trying not to think of this as something tragic
'Cause our two paths might cross again
Crazier things have happened
And I realize lightning strikes just once, not twice
And shooting stars are burning rocks
So I spend weeks inside, drowing in those dreams of mine
And wondering if I'm worth your thoughts

I wish you had enough discipline for the both of us
Just because I don't know how to turn off the way I feel
I know you always fell out love so damn easily, but honestly
I don't think you ever had something real

Until you met me
Drinks in New York City
Ooh, you looked so pretty
Think I fell in love before I even knew your birthday
Kissed you on our first date
Somehow, I knew someday
This would hurt 'cause I could never let you go

Do you not dream of me?
'Cause I have visions in my sleep
I can't ever find my peace now
Do you wake up alone
And feel an aching in your bones?
Or are you happy without me now?

The first time that you told me
You thought that you loved me
That bar in the city
I thought you were drunk
But I knew deep down that you meant it
Wish that I had said it
I was scared to let it happen
But it happened and now I cannot forget it
Oh, I'll spend my whole life
Missing a part of me, part of me
Oh, I'll spend my whole life
Hoping your heart is free, heart is free
