The Morning After

[Verse 1] We broke up last week You called and I picked up again I knew better than this Better than this Better than this One more night in your arms One more lie that I wanted to live Now I'm back where I was Where I was Where I was [Pre-Chorus] For a couple hours I could almost believe Nothing was broken Nothing had changed [Chorus] It's the morning after And I hate what I did Gave my heart a reason To start hoping again It's the morning after And the truth's coming back Last night felt like forever This morning feels like that [Verse 2] Your side of the bed Still carrying traces of us And I'm fighting myself Fighting myself Fighting myself 'Cause the reasons we ended Didn't disappear in the dark They're still waiting for me Waiting for me Waiting for me [Pre-Chorus] For a couple hours I could almost believe Nothing was broken Nothing had changed [Chorus] It's the morning after And I hate what I did Gave my heart a reason To start hoping again It's the morning after And the truth's coming back Last night felt like forever This morning feels like that [Bridge] I wanted closure Instead I got caught Between what I needed And what I forgot I thought I was stronger Than the pull of your touch Now I'm left with the feeling That I gave you too much [Final Chorus] It's the morning after And I'm done pretending One night doesn't fix What was already ending It's the morning after And it hurts to admit I don't want you forever I just wanted this [Outro] It's the morning after The morning after I don't want you forever I just wanted this
