"When I Lose You" lyrics

I wanna want what you want
I wanna feel what you feel
I know we'd have a good life
But what if I never know what it really feels like?
I wanna tell you I'm in
I'm all the way in
I wish that I felt it
It's a fine line between lying and trying

What's for the best and what feels better
Are never the same, we're not quite right together
And yet it feels more wrong apart

When I lose you, I want you
When I lose you, I need you
But when I have you, my head's somewhere else
You're a lie I keep telling myself
When I lose you, I want you
When I lose you, I need you
When I'm with you, I wish I could love you the way that I do
When I lose you

Maybe what's in my head
Doesn't exist
Maybe it's a myth
And this is what is realistic
But I can't help but wonder
What else there is
On the other side of decisions I'm afraid to make
Paths that I'm afraid to take

What's for the best and what feels better
Are never the same, we're not quite right together
And yet it feels more wrong apart

When I lose you, I want you
When I lose you, I need you
But when I have you, my head's somewhere else
You're a lie I keep telling myself
When I lose you, I want you
When I lose you, I need you
When I'm with you, I wish I could love you the way that I do
I wish I could see you the way that I do
I wish I could keep you the way that I do
When I lose you

When I lose you
When I lose you
