Lyrics

Verse 1

Used to talk on the phone all night

Used to be my best friend

And we never really had to fight

It was all just romance

Used to think we were the same

Now we want something different

Girl I don't know when it changed

But now it's harder to give you what you want

There's always something wrong

Even if we find some peace

Then it doesn't last for long

Now I think we're reaching

For something dead and gone

But baby I'm still holding on

Chorus

This can't be the way it goes goes goes

How do you know know know

When to let it go

Or when to hold on

How do you know know know

Verse 2

Baby are we wasting time

Some things you just can't fix

Are we on the wrong side of this

Can we read between the lines

It should be easier than this

But now it's harder to give you what you want

There's always something wrong

Even if we find some peace

Then it doesn't last for long

Now I think we're reaching

For something dead and gone

But baby I'm still holding on

Bridge

It's too late for us

Ain't no saving us

I know we gave it up

But that's ok
