"The Old You" lyrics

"The Old You"

I've got something on my chest
That I just gotta confess
But I don't wanna admit it

Sometimes I look in your eyes
And I know deep down inside
That my whole heart isn't in it
Anymore

Why's it gotta be so painful
I meant it when I said
I'd never be unfaithful
But

I'll kiss your lips
Thinking about somebody else
Swallow my guilt
So I can live with myself

I hate to say it
But the cold hard truth is
I wish I was with
With the old you
I really miss the old you

Such a familiar face
You've got a similar taste
I swear you look just like her

She used to laugh at my jokes
The sex was out of control
Till it came down to the wire

Then life hit like a freight train
And everything changed
We still pretend like it's amazing
But nothing's the same
But

I'll kiss your lips
Thinking about somebody else
Swallow my guilt
So I can live with myself

I hate to say it
But the cold hard truth is
I wish I was with
With the old you
I really miss the old you

I'd wait forever to hold her
I know we're gonna figure it out
Just lay your head on my shoulder
Lay it all down
Till she comes around

I'll kiss your lips
Thinking about somebody else
Swallow my guilt
So I can live with myself

I hate to say it
But the cold hard truth is
I wish I was with
I wish I was with
With the old you
I really miss the old you
I really miss the old you
