[English]
We been talking for hours'Bout how we shouldn't talk for hours on end
Kissing after a conversation
'Bout how we'd probably be better off as friends
Same time here next weekend
Say, "We won't do this again"
Make me fall where I stand
Only like you can
Yeah, I say, "I'm done," but I'm still confused
How am I supposed to close the door when I still need the closure?
And I change my mind, but it's still on you
How am I supposed to leave you now that you're already over?
How am I supposed to leave you now that you're already over?
Selfishly don't wanna give you
Time to be on someone else's lips
But I'll take three short hours over three long weeks
Pretending like we don't exist, hmm
Same time here next weekend
Say, "We won't do this again"
Make me fall where I stand
Only like you can
Yeah, I say, "I'm done," but I'm still confused
How am I supposed to close the door when I still need the closure?
And I change my mind, but it's still on you
How am I supposed to leave you now that you're already over?
How am I supposed to leave you now that you're already over?
After the aftermath, I know you'll be coming back
To the back bedroom and it won't be the last
Of the aftermath, I know you'll be coming back
To the back bedroom, and it won't be the last time
I say, "I'm done," but I'm still confused
How am I supposed to close the door when I still need the closure?
And I change my mind, but it's still on you
How am I supposed to leave you now that you're already over?
Yeah, I like my bed, but it likes you, too
How am I supposed to leave you now that you're already over?
