[Verse 1]
We were tryna move out, tryna find our own place
Dreaming 'bout the houses that we can't afford
A table in the kitchen, breakfast in the garden
Even knew the colour that we'd paint the door
Yeah, I can see the future, Happy ever after
Even told my brother, this time, I was sure
That I've found someone forever
[Chorus]
I never thought it would end like this, no
I never thought it'd be where our story goes
I never thought it would end like this
But you've turned the pages, and now we're just strangers
I never thought it would end like this, no
I never thought it'd be where our story goes
I never thought it would end like this
But you've turned the pages, and now we're just strangers
[Verse 2]
I still sleep on the left side like you're lying with me
I keep on forgetting you're not coming back
And I still reach for two cups when I'm making coffee
I can't stop myself from living in the past
When you were someone forever
[Chorus]
I never thought it would end like this, no
I never thought it'd be where our story goes
I never thought it would end like this
But you've turned the pages, and now we're just strangers
I never thought it would end like this, no
I never thought it'd be where our story goes
I never thought it would end like this
But you've turned the pages, and now we're just strangers
[Bridge]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
(I'm nothing, nothing, nothing)
Oh, oh
(I'm nothing, nothing, nothing, no)
Oh, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
I never thought it would end like this, no
I never thought it'd be where our story goes
[Chorus]
I never thought it would end like this, no
I never thought it'd be where our story goes
I never thought it would end like this
But you've turned the pages, and now we're just strangers
I never thought it would end, never thought it would end
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Never thought it would end like this, no
I never thought it would end, never thought it would end
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Never thought it would end like this, no
[Outro]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

I wrote this song in LA about a friend who had just been through a breakup. We ended up using the demo I recorded that day as the final version.
