Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But nothing keeps my mind away from you
I laugh it off, meanwhile I'm stuck in a constant daze of
All the times we wasted fighting
If I could take it back then I would
For another moment of you smiling
Never said I'm sorry but I should
You've got me stuck right in the middle
Of wanting you back and never again
What we are now and what could've been
So what I so what I
I'm freaking out
I'm drinking way too much all by myself
I need you now
You know it's not like me to ask for help
Can't get hold of my emotions
Tried to do what you did just leave
I ran away across the ocean, still I feel you right here with me
So what I miss you just a little
You've got me stuck right in the middle
Of wanting you back and never again
What we are now and what could've been
So what I so what I miss you just a litte
It's not your fault
But it's not mine either
Don't wanna call
But I want you to be here
Don't wanna over complicate it
But my heart it keeps on breaking
It's impossible to shake it
Maybe it's time for me to face it
So what I miss you just a little
You've got me stuck right in the middle
Of wanting you back and never again
What we are now and what could've been
So what I so what I
So what I miss you just a little
You've got me stuck right in the middle
Of wanting you back and never again
What we are now and what could've been
So what I so what I
