Lyrics
[Verse 1] You left your sweater On the back of that old chair Still smells like winter And the way you used to care Coffee stain on your side of the sink I stand there too long Got too much time to think [Chorus] Back when I was yours I took love for granted Acting like you’d always stay No matter how I acted Now I’m holding memories Like they’re all I can afford All my tomorrows feel so short I’m stuck back when I was yours [Verse 2] You said “call me” I let that message ring Thought I’d call tomorrow Like it was a simple thing Now I scroll the pictures Till my vision starts to swim Talk to your reflection On the glass Instead of him [Chorus] Back when I was yours I took love for granted Acting like you’d always stay No matter how I acted Now I’m holding memories Like they’re all I can afford All my tomorrows feel so short I’m stuck back when I was yours [Bridge] If I could fold time Like the clothes on your side of the bed I’d smooth every wrinkle Every sharp word I said I’d learn how to listen Before you closed that door Say “please don’t go” Like I should have before (yeah) [Chorus] Back when I was yours I took love for granted Acting like you’d always stay No matter how I acted Now I’m holding memories Praying you’ll come back once more But you’re living a different life I’m still back when I was yours
