[Verse 1]
I'll bet you five bucks he said something
That he can't take back
She's been holding it in for months, but
She's about to crack
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh, you see the way she
Leans away, she just put her hands in her coat
And oh-oh-oh-oh, he keeps on trying
She rolls her eyes and looks down at her phone
[Chorus]
Love is so funny, you can always call it
Standing from a mile away
But when you're in the middle's like you can't see, you can't read it
Written all over your face
Nobody wants to hurt nobody
So we hang on just enough
He thinks she'll forgive him
She thinks that they're gonna kiss and make up
But that's the body language of a breakup
The body language of a breakup, oh
[Verse 2]
My friends could see it, my mama warned me
But I stayed on that fence
And I act like genius now, got it all figured out
But flip that mirror around, I lose all common sense
[Chorus]
Love is so funny, you can always call it
Standing from a mile away
But when you're in the middle's like you can't see, you can't read it
Written all over your face
Nobody wants to hurt nobody
So we hang on just enough
He thinks she'll forgive him
She thinks that they're gonna kiss and make up
But that's the body language of a breakup
The body language of a breakup
[Bridge]
Oh-oh-oh-oh, you see the way she
Looks up at him, she knows that there's still a spark
Oh-oh-oh-oh, she even knows she'll
Be letting go of a little piece of her heart
[Chorus]
Love is so funny, you can always call it
Standing from a mile away
But when you're in the middle's like you can't see, you can't read it
Written all over your face
Nobody wants to hurt nobody
So we hang on just enough
He thinks she'll forgive him
She thinks that they're gonna kiss and make up
But that's the body language of a breakup (I can see it comin')
The body language of a breakup (I can see it comin')
[Post-Chorus]
I can see it comin'
I can see it comin'
[Outro]
I can see it comin', I can see it comin'

I loved writing this song with Laura Veltz and Sam Ellis. I feel like we are so good at analyzing other people’s situations and telling them what they need to improve on, what they need to do better, and yet we’re just not good at looking in the mirror and having the same clarity of perspective.
