lyrics

We always said we'd end up alone
But still, it was nice when you would come home
Now I'm taking pictures off the walls
Making arrangements, making sense of it all

You take a bath and I'll take a walk
I try not to cry whenever we talk
I know when you go, it'll be fine
But that won't stop me from drinking the rest of your wine

I should be better at goodbyes
I wish you'd given me a little bit longer to try
Now every time, I'll just wonder
When is the next time I'll be left
To pick up my pieces again

You must think I overreact
But all the tears I just cried, I can't take them back
But I won't say a word when I help you pack your stuff
I'll just be wondering why all I gave you wasn't enough

I should be better at goodbyes
I wish you'd given me a little bit longer to try
Now every time, I'll just wonder
When is the next time I'll be left
To pick up my pieces again?

I haven't been able to sleep
Making a list of everything that you'll keep
You keep the dishes, keep your furniture, keep all of your memories
Keep the rug you pulled out from under me

We always said we'd end up alone
When will I find somewhere to call home?

I should be better at goodbyes
I wish you'd given me a little bit longer to try
Now every time, I'll just wonder when is the next time?
Oh, every time, I'll just wonder is this the last time I'll be left to pick up my pieces again?

"Alternative and folky, Candace Griffin's music comes straight from the heart. As a songwriter, she takes inspiration from the life around her, and with honest words and acoustic-driven emotions, she puts her listeners right in the moment. You'll think the songs were written just for you." (Bio by Caitlin Wildhagen) ... more
