[verse 1]
It was early in the morning
When you finally changed your tune
And you told me that it's over
But it's not me it's you
Well i'm so sick of hearing it
I'm not a fool now i know what you did
Shoulda told you then that you're a hypocrite
[Chorus]
So i drove my car to the edge of the mersey
I threw my phone sayin you don't deserve me
On yet another starless night kiss goodbye to my old
Life
Yeah i gave my heart to the banks of the mersey
I begged you to change you nevеr heard me
I'm moving with the moon and tidеs
Wave goodbye to my old life
My old life
It's gone this time
My old life
[verse 2]
Standing in the garden of where my parents used to live
I don't know why i come here when it makes me feel like this
And in it comes the setting sun
And just like that the day was done
And you're already moving on
[Chorus]
So i drove my car to the edge of the mersey
I threw my phone sayin you don't deserve me
On yet another starless night kiss goodbye to my old
Life
Yeah i gave my heart to the banks of the mersey
I begged you to change you never heard me
I'm moving with the moon and tides
Wave goodbye to my old life
My old life
It's gone this time
My old life
[bridge]
And in an instant i felt older
Put a huge weight off my shoulders
Don't have to hold it all together anymore
And i hope this makes me wiser
When i think about the future
Not gonna let anyone shake me to my core
[outro]
So i drove my car to the edge of the river
I throw my phone cuz i don't wanna listen
On yet another starless night
Kiss goodbye to my old life
Yeah i threw my heart to the banks of the river
I cried when you left i won't even miss ya
I'm moving with the moon and tides
Wave goodbye to my old life
My old life
It's gone this time
My old life
My old life

This last 18 months have brought about some of the biggest changes in my life. I’ve had to learn how to set boundaries. Learn how to walk away from people and how to let people walk away from me. This song is about a particular period I had to dig really deep to find enough self-worth to move on fro...
