that's not the way
Levi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You gonna make me lose my mind
In all the times we fell apart
I wanted bigger than this
I want it different I guess
I wasn't figuring this out I'm calling it quits
And you knew what it was when I was what I am
And I knew what it was when I was who I am
(Yo, bro)
(What the **** was that?)
Got way too open for the love I was giving
Gave in to all the feelings I was forgetting
Can't believe I felt that way
Can't believe you felt that way
Can't believe we felt that way
Got way too open for the love I was giving
Gave in to all the feelings I was forgetting
Can't believe I felt that way
Can't believe you felt that way
Can't believe we felt that way
Don't take take back your love it's not right
You kiss you don't hug I love I don't fight
Don't take back your love it's not right
You kiss you don't hug I love I don't fight
Don't take take back your love it's not right
You kiss you don't hug I love I don't fight
Don't take back your love it's not right
You kiss you don't hug I love I don't fight
Got way too open for the love I was giving
Gave in to all the feelings I was forgetting
Can't believe I felt that way
Can't believe you felt that way
Can't believe we felt that way
Got way too open for the love I was giving
Gave in to all the feelings I was forgetting
Can't believe I felt that way
Can't believe you felt that way
Can't believe we felt that way
