finish line

Ever since August, baby

I'm gettin' too ****ed up for way too long

I should probably pay these

Girls I get hung up on 'cause they write my songs

Baby, God could save me

From all these nights gone wrong

'Cause you took off and I'm reelin'

But baby, I still got this feelin'

That we could still be more

And I could still be yours

You walked out the door

And now my heart's sore 'cause we didn't try

We got cut short, we didn't make it to the end

No, I just played pretend, and oh, I could've been

If we just spent like a little time

Baby, we stopped just short of that

Lovin' likе no tomorrow (It's cool)

Know I keep actin' a fool and I'm sorry

But my heart was yours to borrow (Yeah)

Said you would keep in touch, and you still nevеr called me

Oh, I can't take it (Ooh)

Spent damn near the whole month faded, just starin' up at my ceilin'

'Cause what's the point of me healin'

When we could still be more?

And I could still be yours

You walked out the door

And now my heart's sore 'cause we didn't try

We got cut short, we didn't make it to the end

No, I just played pretend, and oh, I could've been

If we just spent like a little time

We stopped just short of the finish line

Ever since August, baby, yeah, yeah

I stopped drivin' with the windows down

Started stayin' in when my friends go out

Man, my phone ringin', never been so loud

I could spend my advance on a picket fence and a diamond ring now

Anything to make your little new man freak out

Oh, I bet that mother****er can't stand me, goddamn

And you try to tell me there ain't no such things as happy endings

Well shit, maybe that's the case with him

Come on over, baby, you know where I live

'Cause we could still be more

And I could still be yours

You walked out the door

And now my heart's sore 'cause we didn't try

We got cut short, didn't make it to the end

Know I just played pretend

If we just spent like a little time

Baby, we stopped just short of the finish line

We could still be more

And I could still be yours

You walked out the door

And now my heart's sore 'cause we didn't try

We got cut short, didn't make it to the end

Know I just played pretend

Oh, I could've been

If we just spent like a little time

We stopped just short of the finish line
