lyrics

Tell me, do you feel it too?
Don't hold back on the truth
It might seem inappropriate,
forgive my lack of confidence
It's such a shame, you thought it wasn't worth it
I'm sorry things could never be this perfect

Don't follow me home this time
I want to be alone tonight

I found the secret
to my happiness and peace of mind
it's been burning in me all this time

Can't shake this feeling I get
when I wake up in these dirty sheets
and old wrinkled clothes
then let the alcohol seep through my teeth again
as I say:

Like a hangover on Saturday morning,
I'm feeling incomplete
The taste is bittersweet
You know I'm sorry about this
sometimes I just couldn't help it

So emotional
thinking of all those years
you won't be here

Time didn't make it all that better,
still wishing for warmer weather
you and me, not meant to be,
cut me deep and you'll see
I need the beach, my feet buried deep in sand
the sun in my eyes, cleared up the sky

Well I spent the new year
alone in my bed
fireworks didn't wake me up
I've grown so out of touch

Like a hangover on Saturday morning,
I'm feeling incomplete
the taste is bittersweet
