You held me like the one thing you'd never lose I held you at a distance, and it was cruel I'm really good at pushing away too soon And now I wish you'd come back, but you never do Oh, they say you're better off As if it's gonna make it easy to move on Oh, they say that time will heal But they don't ever wake up feeling like I feel (oh) I can't forget the night that I let you walk away You took the beating of my heart It doesn't work the same I close my eyes sometimes and hope that I see your face And though I don't know where you are (know that) I wanted you to stay I miss the way you'd call just to say my name Messages on my phone, I still replay You never know what you got 'til nothing's left Forgive me now if I could say what I never said Oh, they say you're better off As if it's gonna make it easy to move on Oh, they say that time will heal But they don't ever wake up feeling like I feel (oh) I can't forget the night that I let you walk away You took the beating of my heart It doesn't work the same I close my eyes sometimes and hope that I see your face And though I don't know where you are (know that) I wanted you to stay I wanted you to stay (stay) I wanted you to stay I wanted you to stay Stay Oh, they say you're better off As if it's gonna make it easy to move on
