Put you first just like you wanted Gave you me, you took for granted Now here I am at twenty-eight All my friends, I hardly know 'em I don't sing, 'cause you're still broken I almost threw it all away How did we go from movies on Tuesdays To all our memories packed in a suitcase? Carried the weight for you for far too long Even though I loved you, you know I had to leave I guess I had to lose you on the way to find a me 'Cause they say: Time heals all wounds; but your wounds cut so deep I guess I had to lose you on the way to find a me It was hard to be there for you When my dreams kept fallin' short, and You were the only thing I knew You were always there when I was fallin' You promised me that you were all in I made you everything and nothing all at once 'Cause even though I loved you, you know I had to leave I guess I had to lose you on the way to find a me 'Cause they say: Time heals all wounds; but your wounds cut so deep I guess I had to lose you on the way to find a me Yeah, I love you more than I love myself And I hate that there is nobody else Yeah, I love you more than I love myself And I hate that there is nobody 'Cause even though I loved you, you know I had to leave I guess I had to lose you on the way to find a me 'Cause they say: Time heals all wounds; but your wounds cut so deep I guess I had to lose you on the way to find a me Even though I loved you, wish I didn't have to leave I still just wanna hold you as you fall asleep And I hope it all works out and you find everything you need I guess I had to lose you on the way to find a me
