[Verse 1]
I traced your name in the cracks
On the train window glass
You were there in the spill
Of the rain and the past
Your laugh hit first
Then the rest came in
Like a locked front door
That I knew from within
[Pre-Chorus]
I kept turning away
Kept saying I'm fine
But every road I took
Brought me back in time
[Chorus]
It was you
It was always you (always you)
Every broken road
Led me back to you
It was you
It was always you (always you)
I was lost for a while
But I was chasing you
[Verse 2]
Your jacket on the chair
Your keys by the sink
That little half-smile
I still feel when I blink
I tried to outrun it
Tried to cut it loose
But every empty room
Kept your shadow in use
[Pre-Chorus]
I kept turning away
Kept saying I'm fine
But every road I took
Brought me back in time
[Chorus]
It was you
It was always you (always you)
Every broken road
Led me back to you
It was you
It was always you (always you)
I was lost for a while
But I was chasing you
[Bridge]
Now the door is open
And the air feels new
All the things I hid
Come undone in you
If I start again
Let the truth come through
There's no after all
There is only you
[Chorus]
It was you
It was always you (always you)
Every broken road
Led me back to you
It was you
It was always you (always you)
I was lost for a while
But I was chasing you
[Outro]
It was you
It was always you (always you)
It was you
