"In The Back Of My Mind" lyrics

"In The Back Of My Mind"

What if I said
I was never over you
And there's nothing I can do to change that

Please know I tried
To forget what we were like
But the memories always find their way back

Whenever someone says your name
Or when I'm lying wide awake
I try to block you out
But some things never change

In back of my mind
You carved out a space
And you come back every time
I find somebody else to take your place
It's not about, holding on to a love that we used to have
And I swear that I'm not trying to get you back
But for the rest of my life, you'll be
In the back of my mind
In the back of my mind

I know the truth
That it never would've have worked
But that doesn't mean it hurt me any less

Still moving on's
Not the same as letting go
Part of me has always known I guess

Whenever someone says your name
Or when I'm lying wide awake
I try to block you out
Something's never change

In back of my mind
You carved out a space
You come back every time
I find somebody else to take your place
It's not about, holding on to a love that we used to have
And I swear that I'm not trying to get you back
But for the rest of my life, you'll be
In the back of my mind
In the back of my mind

Coffee out on your back balcony
That stupid house on our favorite street
I used to think it would be you and me
Living there

In back of my mind
You carved out a space
You come back every time
I find somebody else to take your place
It's not about, holding on to a love that we used to have
And I swear that I'm not trying to get you back
But for the rest of my life, you'll be
In the back of my mind
(Coffee out on your back balcony
That stupid house on our favorite street)
In the back of my mind
(I used to think it would be you and me
Living there)
In the back of my mind
