[Verse 1] You left a tune on my tongue Like gum on the bottom of my shoe It cuts through breakfast, red lights, rain Still plays when I’m trying to move I’ve tried new songs in my head New names, new streets, new air But your little crooked melody Shows up like it lives there [Pre-Chorus] And I hate how it wins Every single time One small line And I’m back in line [Chorus] I can’t forget that melody (It keeps coming back) I can’t forget that melody (It drags me right back) Your tune stays lit in my chest I say move on, it says not yet I can’t forget that melody (I can’t forget that melody) [Verse 2] It hits me on the bus at noon In the hiss of a soda can In the gap between two phone calls In the space of your left hand I laughed it off for a while Acted like I was fine But some hooks don’t ask permission They just move in and colonize [Pre-Chorus] And I hate how it wins Every single time One small line And I’m back in line [Chorus] I can’t forget that melody (It keeps coming back) I can’t forget that melody (It drags me right back) Your tune stays lit in my chest I say move on, it says not yet I can’t forget that melody (I can’t forget that melody) [Bridge] Half-time in the dark Your voice on repeat One cracked little note And you wreck me cheap I tried to burn it out Tried to shake it loose But it’s stitched to my pulse Like a rib I never chose [Chorus] I can’t forget that melody (It keeps coming back) I can’t forget that melody (It drags me right back) Your tune stays lit in my chest I say move on, it says not yet I can’t forget that melody (I can’t forget that melody)
