[Intro]
Yeah, bring the drums in, yeah
Can you hear me okay? Yeah
Alright I got a story for you guys today
Make sure you listen up
Check, uhh
[Verse 1]
Let me tell you 'bout a boy and a girl
Girl would've given boy world
Boy had her wrapped around his finger
They used to have love
Boy let it go away, girl let it linger
She cries, reminiscing on the good times
He plays the bad boy, really he's a good guy
Deep inside it kills him, knowing that she feels him
He wants to be a better man, but he's still him
Immature kid, worry about his own shit
Still searching for his own itch
Girl had it all, he didn't deserve it
Well that's what he thought
Really they were perfect
Yo, why couldn't they work it out the first time?
Let's just say the boy hurt her
It didn't have to be relationship murder
His heart said stay
But his head said further
[Chorus]
Boy ran away tryna find a new day, hey, yeah
And girl stayed back, she prayed that
Boy would come back 'cause she forgave that
But his mistake killed him more than her
Tears in her eyes made him realize
He loved her more than words could explain
He couldn't take the pain so he took the train
[Verse 2]
Girl thought about boy every night
Every time she slept, held the pillow real tight
Girl would give anything to have her soul mate
Boy would give anything to have a clean slate
He couldn't shake the fact that he messed up
Kept remembering her face the day that he fessed up
Deep down he knew he'd give her the best of him
She used to have his heart
Now she'd have the rest of him
But he had to stop killing himself first
Adding fuel to the fire only made his hell worse
Every time girl called, boy hit ignore
Every time girl knocked, boy hit the door
It was hard, but he didn't trust himself
He'd look in the mirror and disgust himself
If he could hurt the girl once, even though he loved her
Who's to say it wouldn't happen if he tried another time
[Chorus]
Boy ran away tryna find a new day, hey, yeah
And girl stayed back, she prayed that
Boy would come back 'cause she forgave that
But his mistake killed him more than her
Tears in her eyes made him realize
He loved her more than words could explain
He couldn't take the pain so he took the train
[Verse 3]
Now they figured out love takes sacrifice
They both went to their friends and asked advice
They both got the same suggestions, to the same dumb questions
"Why the hell are you stressing?
You two were meant to be together
Nobody but each other could be the better half of either one of you
Open your eyes and see what's in front of you dummy
Don't overthink it, if you overthink it, it's over before it begins
Don't predict the story before you get to the end
Focus on the journey, hold your lovers and friends close"
Lucky for those two, they were able to compose
Like "Hello, nice to see you again"
Now they're two peas in a pod
But there's a reason I shared this story with you
'Cause it could have easily been, bye, bye to their future
Hi to the regrets
So 'fore you give into your whims
Think who you might affect
[Chorus]
Boy ran away tryna find a new day, hey, yeah
And girl stayed back, she prayed that
Boy would come back 'cause she forgave that
Lucky for them they were able to get through the pain
It's important when it's storming
That you try to see through the rain
Try to see through the rain, hey
