The Other Me

[Verse 1]
I guess we can still be friends
I guess we can talk at least
But if we were seventeen
Imagine the things we'd do
I know that those days are over
I'm glad that those games are won
The winners ride off into the sunset
But it's not the same for you

[Pre-Chorus]
And I don't wanna play
Those nasty games that adults play
But I can't let you go
And I can't see another way

[Chorus]
And I know that she's the only one for me
And you know that if I could split in two
The other me—would stay all night
The other me—would hold you tight
The other me—would be the only one for you

[Verse 2]
When I see you there alone
It almost breaks my heart
But it doesn't break enough
For me to break my whole life apart
I guess we could still be friends
And we can talk all night
But I have to bite my tongue
And sometimes words don't come out right

[Pre-Chorus]
We're old enough to know
What we can think or say out loud
To know that hearts are not just
Cards to play when two's a crowd

[Chorus]
And I know that she's the only one for me
And you know that if I could split in two
The other me—would stay all night
The other me—would hold you tight
The other me—would be the only one for you

[Bridge]
The other me
Would take you so far away from here
And he'd be
A man with a mission
The other me
Might even be better than this one

[Chorus]
Whoa, I know that she's the only one for me
And you know that if I could split in two
The other me—would stay all night
The other me—would hold you tight
The other me—would be the only one for you
