lyrics

I’m still trying to break the eye contact
We made about a week ago
Yeah I looked and you were mouthing something dirty
With the force of a cannonball
And it’s only the part of the story
Where we flirt and then you ignore me
It’s true
But through the fading rumination
Regret and illumination
It’s always been you

The world’s a big place for two people
And life’s a long time to live in regret
You could be one in a million or you could be nothing
So why can’t I get you out of my head

And I’ve got to ask
Where would we be
If we were five years older
Our lives were stuck on hold
And you were looking back at me
I did some yoga and I thought about the things that I missed
And I know I should’ve focused on my breathing but I couldn’t resist

And I never think clear any more
Because I’m always overthinking of you
The imagination pleases me
But – oh my god – it freezes me
And I can never follow it through

The world’s a big place for two people
And life’s a long time to live in regret
You could be one in a million or you could be nothing
So why can’t I get you out of my head

‘Cause I know better than you
I don’t matter to you
I know better than you
I don’t matter to you
