After The One

Pretend that it’s working

While you have a drawer

Full of photos of memories

You tell me mean nothing

I know they mean something

I talk about what could be

And I feel you subtly

Compare me to history

With someone you’re missing

Somebody I can’t be

I see “Forever” on your lips

But I know that you’re

Somewhere else when we kiss

It’s like I’m in a movie

Playing someone else’s part

While you wonder where they are

You’d be okay to lose me

And I would fall apart

Tryna win your broken heart

I wish I was the one

And not just holding someone’s place

But we both know I’m the one after the one that got away

I’m an optimist in every sense

My glass is empty ever since

I fell for this

I don’t know what I’m doin’

Trying to love you through it

I think “Forever” looks like you

But I’m just the “moving on” you have to do

It’s like I’m in a movie

Playing someone else’s part

While you wonder where they are

You’d be okay to lose me

And I would fall apart

Tryna win your broken heart

I wish I was the one

And not just holding someone’s place

But we both know I’m the one after the one that got away

Away

The one, the one, the one, the one

After the one, the one, the one, the one

Ooh, the one, the one, the one, the one

After the one, the one, the one, the one

I wish I was the one

And not just holding someone’s place

But we both know I’m the one after the one that got away
