V6

Verse 1] I left the window open too long Thinking you’d come back around Every night that cold came through I kept telling myself it wasn’t you I gave you room, I gave you time Kept making reasons in my mind Till one night I finally knew I can’t keep freezing just to stay close to you [Pre-Chorus] And I ain’t mad I ain’t keeping score I just don’t live In that winter anymore [Chorus] I wasn’t angry at the wind I just got tired of being cold I didn’t stop caring about you I just learned when to let go I could’ve left that window open Waiting for what we used to be But sometimes choosing warmth Means finally choosing me [Verse 2] I don’t need to block your number Don’t need to drag your name What we had was real to me Even if it couldn’t stay the same So if you notice I’m not watching If you don’t see my name around It ain’t bitterness, baby I’m just putting my heart on safer ground [Bridge] Maybe I’ll always love a little Of who we were back then But loving you from a distance Is where this story has to end ‘Cause I learned you can forgive somebody Without letting them back in And closing one little window Don’t mean I regret where we’ve been [Final Chorus] I wasn’t angry at the wind I just got tired of being cold And I don’t hate you for changing Some seasons aren’t ours to hold So I closed that window softly Didn’t slam it when I left Sometimes choosing warmth Is choosing what’s best for yourself [Outro] I don’t hate you… I just can’t stay cold trying to keep you close.
