[Verse 1]
You were Sunday morning
Coffee in a chipped blue cup
Laughing at my worst jokes
Like they were almost enough
I watched you fold your dreams
Place them in my empty hands
Felt my throat start closing
So I pulled away instead
[Chorus]
You were too good for my heart
So I tore us apart
Told you it was me
Not you
Then I ran from the truth
Now every quiet night
You’re the ghost in my room
I keep seeing your eyes
But I’m too scared to move
I still love you in the dark
You were too good for my heart
[Verse 2]
I rehearse our last night
That street where we said goodbye
You were trying not to tremble
I was trying not to cry
Said you hoped I’d find peace
Like it wasn’t right there with you
I pretended I believed it
Now I choke on that excuse
[Chorus]
You were too good for my heart
So I tore us apart
Told you it was me
Not you
Then I ran from the truth
Now every quiet night
You’re the ghost in my room
I keep seeing your eyes
But I’m too scared to move
I still love you in the dark
You were too good for my heart
[Bridge]
What if you hate me now
What if you’re better off
What if you’ve finally learned
How to live with all you’ve lost
I dial your number halfway
Then I set my phone aside
I’m a stranger to your doorway
But you’re home in my mind (oh)
[Chorus]
You were too good for my heart
So I tore us apart
Told you it was me
Not you
Then I ran from the truth
Now every quiet night
You’re the ghost in my room
I keep praying someday
I’ll be brave enough for you
Till then I fall apart
You were too good for my heart
