[Verse 1] I still fold your shirts by hand Line them up just right I know the way you like your tea Two spoons, no light You gave me the coat off your back When I had none Now I wear your name like a debt I can't outrun [Pre-Chorus] And I try to speak But the words turn thin Every room we share Feels too small for the dream I'm in [Chorus] I owe you so much I owe you so much But my heart's somewhere else I hold on tight I hold on tight Still I can't be myself [Verse 2] You ask where I've been all day I say "running late" Truth is, I've been standing still Behind the gate You built a life with both your hands I let it in Now I'm scared of being the reason It falls again [Pre-Chorus] And I try to stay Like a promise kept But the future calls my name In the dark, in the back of my chest [Chorus] I owe you so much I owe you so much But my heart's somewhere else I hold on tight I hold on tight Still I can't be myself [Bridge] If I leave, it's not because You weren't enough It's 'cause I keep hearing my own life Calling out from far enough And I hate that love can hurt When it means goodbye I can care for you forever And still need to try [Final Chorus] I owe you so much I owe you so much But my heart's somewhere else I hold on tight I hold on tight Still I can't be myself I owe you so much I owe you so much And I hate that it's true I hold on tight I hold on tight But I'm drifting from you
