Shoulda Known Better

Sofia Camara

2 a.m., I couldn't think straight

Head down on my pillowcase

Why do nights feel so slow?

I miss your calls, I miss your hellos

Tried so hard to keep a straight face

I thought my head was a safe place

I just wanted to feel wanted

But I was getting what I wanted

 

One way to go

You got high hopes

And I know that love comes, love goes away

But all I needed was for you to stay

 

Way too close

The words I should've said but never wrote

And now I'm feeling like I'm missing home

I really shoulda let you know

Got too close

That's the part that always hurts the most

I wish I wasn't feeling all alone

I shoulda let you know

I said forever but I shoulda known better

 

Time was never on our side

I see you when I close my eyes

Since we never got to say goodbye

At least not in this lifetime

 

One way to go

You got high hopes

And I know that love comes, love goes away

 

Way too close

The words I should've said but never wrote

And now I'm feeling like I'm missing home

I really shoulda let you know

Got too close

That's the part that always hurts the most

I wish I wasn't feeling all alone

I shoulda let you know

I said forever but I shoulda known better

 

I said forever but I shoulda known better

Shoulda known (Woah, oh)

I said forever (No, yeah)

I said forever

I said forever

 

Got too close

That's the part that always hurts the most

I wish I wasn't feeling all alone

I shoulda let you know

I said forever but I shoulda known better
