[Verse 1]
Stay with you 'till the morning
When the sun hits your face through the blinds
Yes, I know how much you hate it
Cussing air, whilst you cover your eyes
Yeah, I know I haven't been too well
But I swear these pills have helped
Spoon fed cover ups
I soaked my demons in honey, my love
[Verse 2]
And I don't praise ill health
Still, under covers I feel well
He's about the only thing that feels real
Under mothered, under coloured
Over suffered, I've seen hell
Desires to pursue
What I had planned at the start
But I've drowned in my own doubts
Too low to come down back to you now
[Chorus]
So, I tried to heal your scars
But some things just aren't
Meant to be with me?
Right girl
Wrong time
You said so casually
You said so casually
[Verse 3]
And I'm just supposed to be alright
Forget what was said
And get on with my life?
You remind me of happier times
Yeah, with you I felt so alive
But don't forget about me
I'm sorry I couldn't be what you need
But the sun will rise
And we will try again and again
[Pre-Chorus]
Went to Spain and saw the palm trees
Got a burn to prove that I'm Greek
Met a man who thought we were a bit domestic
Probably right, 'cause you said that you resent me
I wish you understood
I wish you understood
[Chorus]
And i tried to heal your scars
But some things just aren't
Meant to be with me?
Right girl
Wrong time
You said so casually
You said so casually
[Post-Chorus]
Why, why, why, why did you change?
Why didn't you stay?
[Outro]
I found it's alright to be sad
When I'm singing the blues
And it's okay to be happy
When I'm thinking 'bout you
