Intro
The room still smells like rain and smoke
Your shadow lives inside my coat
Every streetlight hums your name
And nothing ever feels the same
You left your records on my floor
But I don’t play them anymore
‘Cause every vinyl crack and spin
Pulls me right back under skin
Pre-Chorus
Time cast a spell on you, but you won't forget me
The moon still hangs where you once kissed me
I know I could’ve loved you, but you would not let me
Now your silence is the only thing that gets me
Chorus
You can’t get what you want
But you can get me
Broken like the blue beneath the sea
You ran from every fire in your chest
But somehow left the burning all in me
You can chase another dream
Another city
Another set of arms to help you sleep
But when the night cuts through your soul
You’ll hear my voice in every memory
I was yours completely
The mirror knows the shape of tears
I’ve counted every lonely year
And every stranger’s face I touch
Still doesn’t feel like quite enough
You wore your pain like leather black
Never learned to love me back
You held me close to keep me near
But never close enough to hear
Pre-Chorus
Time cast a spell on you, but you won't forget me
Even heaven couldn’t make it easy
I know I could’ve loved you, but you would not let me
Now your ghost is dancing in the empty
Chorus
You can’t get what you want
But you can get me
Cold as all the winter in your sheets
You swore you never needed anyone
Then turned my heart into a place you’d leave
You can run another mile
Say you’re healing
Pretend the past is buried underneath
But every road you wander down
Will lead your tired hands right back to me
Bridge
And I hate that I still wait
For footsteps at my door
Like maybe you’ll come back this time
And love me like before
But blue songs never get happy endings
They just fade into the dark
Leaving lonely people singing
With somebody else’s heart
Final Chorus
You can’t get what you want
But you can get me
Scarred and soft and bleeding melody
Time cast a spell on you, but love
Still carved my name into your memory
You can hold the whole wide world
And still be empty
‘Cause some hearts break too deep to leave
And even if you never come back home
Part of you will always belong to me
Always belong to me
