Both of Us
Chase Huglin Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You are running late to class and I'm running late to work
We walk back to your apartment with the shoes on

We'll meet up out and I am worried about you
You want me to stay longer so I
could sober up before the drive back home

Just hit me up when you're feeling alright

I don't want to have to waste a Friday night
In my car on the side of the road with my hazards on
Just let me know if things will be alright
I don't want to have to waste all my time
Is it you, or is it me?
Is it the both of us?
Is it the both of us?

Changing my lock screen back to default
Deleting pictures, was this all my fault?
I do not think that this is me

Backspace out the hearts next to your name
Taking pictures out of their frames
I just want to feel okay

Just hit me up when you're feeling alright
I don't want to have to waste a Friday night
In my car on the side of the road with my hazards on
Just let me know if things will be alright
I don't want to have to waste all my time
Is it you, or is it me? Is it the both of us?
Is it the both of us?

Just hit me up when you're feeling alright
Don't want to have to waste my Friday night
In my car on the side of the road with my hazards on
Just let me know if things will be alright
I don't want to have to waste all my time
Is it you, or is it me? Is it the both of us?
Is it the both of us?

Is it the both of us?
Is it the both of us?
