The way you turn to me in bed
And the way you said, "Can I have my spot?"
Put your head against my chest
Asked me to rub your neck
Put on British bake show
Or some other stupid show we'd watched
My hand on your knee in the passenger seat
On the 101, drivin' just aimlessly
The way you turned to me
And said, "Goin' anwywhere with you's okay with me"

So much of us was perfect
And it's always what I think about first
How nice it could've been
If we only lived where our love works

Fossilize my heart
Tryna hold on to the good parts
Memorize, you in my arms
Tryna hold on to the good parts
Can we separate the way it ended from the person?
Refuse to take to heart the things
we said when we were hurting
I still think we mostly are, the good parts

The way you'd make up silly names for me
I hate it but you call me all the time
The way you fell asleep
Beside me in a hospital recliner
On the evening my appendix chose to die
In any kind of crisis
It's impossible I wouldn't run to you

We almost prophesized it on the day we met
Like we already knew

Fossilize my heart
Tryna hold on to the good parts
Memorize, you in my arms
Tryna hold on to the good parts
Can we separate the way it ended from the person?
Refuse to take to heart the things we said
When we were hurting
I still think we mostly are, the good parts

So much of us was perfect
And it's always what I think about first
How nice it could've been if we only lived
Where our love works

Fossilize my heart
Tryna hold on to the good parts
Memorize, you in my arms
Tryna hold on to the good parts
Can we separate the way it ended from the person?
Refuse to take to heart the things we said
Ahen we were hurting
I still think we mostly are, the good parts
