[Verse 1]
I think I'll take the long way home
'Cause I never get the opportunity to walk alone
I miss you, but I kind of don't
I slide our love into the pockets of my coat
[Pre-Chorus]
It's not forever
It's just a temporary fix
Oh, how I needed it
I think about me without you
[Chorus]
I'm on the pathway
Along the serpentine
Hard to stay grounded when your thoughts are way too light
It doesn't mean that you're not heavy on my mind
I just need to think about me without you sometimes
[Verse 2]
It's not like me to slow life down
I get scared of what I hide and how it finds its own way out
So I count my steps just let it drown
I keep tracing little circlеs going round and round and round
[Pre-Chorus]
It's not forever
It's just a break, that's what it is
A lullaby I'vе missed
I think about me without you
[Chorus]
I'm on the pathway
Along the serpentine
Hard to stay grounded when your thoughts are way too light
It doesn't mean that you're not heavy on my mind
I just need to think about me without you sometimes
[Bridge]
Lately
I think too much
My head races
Lost in the flood
But I love you
And I swear that I do
[Chorus]
I'm on the pathway
Along the serpentine
Hard to stay grounded when your thoughts are way too light
It doesn't mean that you're not heavy on my mind
I just need to think about me without you sometimes
