"Lose To Find" lyrics

(You gotta lose to find
You gotta lose to find)

Didn't think we'd end up like this
Sorry 'cause I made you all those empty promises
Wish I took advantage of it now
'Cause you're gone and all I'm wanting is you
Wish we hadn't stayed on our phones
'Cause now all that remains is one heartbreaking camera roll
Nothing I can do can bring you home
I'm by myself and this is so hard to do

But you gotta lose to find
To know that it was good the whole time
You left me with a bruise on my mind
But now you're gone, yes all I want
Is to get you back so we can have

One more dance, one night to make more plans
I'd trade a million moments for one more memory
Of you by my skin, the distance paper thin
But I'll just tell myself it's alright
You gotta lose to find
(You gotta lose to find
You gotta lose to find)

And part of my heart got misplaced
The day it disappears, you were gone without a trace
And everywhere I look, I see you smiling
I want you back but that can't happen today

'Cause you gotta lose to find
To know that it was good the whole time
You left me with a bruise on my mind
And now you're gone, yes all I want
Is to get you back so we can have

That one more dance, one night to make more plans
I'd trade a million moments for one more memory
Of you by my skin, the distance paper thin
But I'll just tell myself it's alright
You gotta lose to find

Need you back, need you back, need you back, I
Need you back, need you back, oh, I
Need you back, need you back, need you back, I
Just tell myself it's alright
You gotta lose to find

So I just tell myself it's alright
Now I know you gotta lose to find
