“Sometimes when I write, there are certain things— phrases that I sing or kind of invent— that mean something to me. And when people ask me what they mean, I’m hesitant to say what they mean, because for somebody els...
[Verse 1]
You apologize
One too many times, so I gave up
You used your second tries
All the words you end up spitting up
But you have gentle eyes
That I love, that I hate, that I love, that I hate
That I love, that I hate, that I love
[Pre-Chorus]
Baby, say it again
Maybe if you say it again
And maybe if you say it again
Maybe I'll believe it then
Baby, say it again
Maybe if you say it again
Change some words around
Maybe I'll believe you then
[Chorus]
But I'm hurting from the way that this worked out
If you could rearrange your words, you could've saved it
If we were made of water, we could swim around it
But I can't no more
[Verse 2]
I still love you though
You're still my best friend, but I hate you, though
And from my tippy toes
That I used to limp 'round your big ego
I should've told you so
When you asked me if I could forgive
When you asked me, I should've said no
[Chorus]
But I'm hurting from the way that this worked out
If you could rearrange your words, you could've saved it
If we were made of water, we could swim around it
But I can't no more
[Bridge]
Could've saved it (Could've saved it)
Could've saved it (Could've saved it)
[Chorus]
And I'm hurting from the way that this worked out
If you could rearrange your words, you could've saved it
If we were made of water, we could swim around it
But I just can't believe no more
[Outro]
If we were made of water
If we were made of water
If we were made of water
If we were made of water
