Waiting for Yesterday

STUDIO

Two seventeen again Your number aint saved but my hand still knows it Thumb on the green like the screen might close it I type you awake then erase all three words Set the phone facedown still wait for it to buzz Theres a ring on the nightstand from your cheap black cup I shouldve thrown it out but I keep washing it up You said dont make this harder standing out by your car I laughed like I was fine till you got past the yard I know she dont make you guess I know you sleep better now But every night my hand forgets What my mouth already found out Im still waiting for yesterday Still picking up the phone like you might say my name Youre doing better with some other girl And Im stuck where you left me trying not to call I let the screen go black then light it up again Like one more ring could put us back where we had been You moved on I just learned to look away Im still waiting for yesterday Dont call Dont call God I wanna call Saw her in your jacket in a picture your friend shared Same diner by the window your hand tangled in her hair You look comfy beside her I hated that the most Not because she stole you you were already gone I zoomed in till the pixels broke across your face Then blocked the whole account and checked it anyway My friends say give it time like time aint on your side Every day pulls you forward every night rewinds mine She gets the version I begged for No slammed doors no maybe I know I shouldnt miss you But knowing dont change me Im still waiting for yesterday Still picking up the phone like you might say my name Youre doing better with some other girl And Im stuck where you left me trying not to call I let the screen go black then light it up again Like one more ring could put us back where we had been You moved on I just learned to look away Im still waiting for yesterday I told you go be happy Like I meant somebody else Like I wasnt counting on you Coming back all by yourself Truth is I miss the bad nights too The fights the drive the hurt Cause even at our worst I still knew where I belonged Your numbers in my muscle memory Your goodbye is in my chest Shes waking up beside you Im still calling what we had next Im still waiting for yesterday Still picking up the phone though you wont say my name Youre doing better with some other girl And I hate that loving you still feels like my fault I let the screen go black dont light it up again Hold my breath until the urge gets quiet in my hand You moved on I finally said it straight Im still waiting for yesterday Two seventeen again
