lyrics

I alternate in between wanting to set you free and a fear that you'll really leave,
You're the only one that's looked at every single little piece of me and said that you like what you see,
Now you only visit in a whiff of your perfume or a midnight reverie,
I still have your favorite sweater, you were always a trendsetter, that was all I could bear to keep

Hey

I know it's what you'd want
You were always looking out for me
But the thought of someone else
Makes it hard to breathe

With my head in my hands
And an ocean in my eyes
I scream into the wind
I apologize, apologize

Red hair, sapphire eyes, I bet you'd think she's cute,
Babe, I promise that I tried, I even wore my best suit.
Everything was going well, for once I had escaped this hell with a stranger and a champagne flute,
That spell was broken with a kiss, that sweet illusion was dismissed, there is no substitute.

Hey

I know it's what you'd want
You were always looking out for me
But the thought of someone else
Makes it hard to breathe

With my head in my hands
And an ocean in my eyes
I scream into the wind
I apologize, apologize
