I'll learn to sleep here alone
To have bad days and not tell you anymore
I'll water your flowers, I swear
But I know they'll die if you're not here
I'll learn not to hop on every train
Because skipping some is good for my thoughts
I'll say no to whoever comes after you
And they'll love me but in your shadow, baby
What do you want me to say now?
That we could've been a sentence written on the sheets?
To wash the bitterness from my mouth
But just think of me whenever it rains outside
I know you're far, but I don't care where I'll end up
I'll bring the wine and a bit of nostalgia
We who loved each other like two librarians
At night sneaking over deserted skateparks
Now I know, I think about it while you leave
That I'll have to learn to unlearn you
I'll try not to look for your footsteps anymore
But you were home wherever I was
I'll learn that it's impossible to be saved
For somebody who spends a lifetime self-sabotaging, me
What do you want me to say now?
Did I picture us fighting about taking the kids to school?
To wash the bitterness from my mouth
But just think of me whenever it rains outside
I know you're far, but I don't care where I'll end up
I'll bring the wine and a bit of nostalgia
We who loved each other like two librarians
At night sneaking over deserted skateparks
Now I know, I think about it while you leave
That I'll have to learn to unlearn you
Let's raise a toast to the past
I won't forget you saved me
I'll need a hand to stay away
Don't ask if I still love you
To wash the bitterness from my mouth
But just think of me whenever it rains outside
I know you're far, but I don't care where I'll end up
I'll bring the wine and a bit of nostalgia
We who loved each other like two librarians
At night sneaking over deserted skateparks
Now I know, I think about it while you leave
That I'll have to learn to unlearn you
