Ex
James Tw Lyrics

Saturday night and the streets are filling up
It's a bustling Saturday night and people are out and about, enjoying themselves.

Saturday night and my mates are calling up
My friends are calling me, probably to ask where I am and invite me out.

Wondering where I've been, where I've been
They are curious about my whereabouts, probably because I've been distant lately.

If I'm ever coming out again, out again
They are wondering if I will ever join them for a night out again.

Guess I don't see the harm in just a couple drinks
Having a few drinks doesn't seem harmful to me, so I'll indulge.

Guess I don't see the harm in having two or three
I don't think two or three drinks will hurt me, so I'll have them.

Probably do me good, do me good
Drinking might help me relax and forget my worries.

'Cause I think of you more than I should, than I should
I can't stop thinking about you, and it's probably not healthy.

They think they're trying to help introducing me to someone else
My friends think that introducing me to someone else will help me move on from you.

I play along 'cause I haven't got the heart to tell 'em
I pretend to be interested in meeting someone else because I don't want to disappoint my friends.

That if I dance with somebody
If I dance with someone tonight,

I might want somebody else
I might realize that I want to be with someone other than the person I'm dancing with.

And if I want somebody
If I start to have feelings for someone,

I might fall in love and forget what it was to be
I might fall in love with them and forget what it was like to be with you.

Wrapped in your arms so tightly
Held tightly in your arms,

To be your man so tonight I'll be
To be your man, I'll dance alone tonight.

Dancing alone 'cause I'm afraid if I forget then you'll just become an Ex
I'm dancing alone because I'm afraid that if I start dating someone else, I'll forget about you and you'll just become another ex.

Now I remember why this was a bad idea
I realize now that going out was a bad idea.

Now I remember even less than when we got here
I'm feeling more confused and disconnected than when the night started.

Memories, memories
I'm reminded of memories from our relationship.

I feel you slipping away from me, away from me
I feel like I'm losing you, and it's making me upset.

I almost wish they'd play the song we used to sing
I almost wish they would play our special song and bring back memories of our relationship.

I almost bought some other girl your favourite drink
I almost bought someone else a drink that reminds me of you.

Had to stop myself, stop myself
I had to stop myself from doing something that would make me think of you even more.

Had to drink the lemon drop myself, drop myself
I had to drink the drink I bought myself instead of giving it to someone else.

Just another Ex
You're just another ex to me.

Just become an Ex
You've become just a memory, and nothing more.
