Intro

Verse 1

Saw the world from up close

It ain't much to look

Compared to you and your work clothes

Waving hello from the drive

way

I can't make myself whole

Most days, I'd be lucky just to get

half

But you've seen me in places so low

You can recognise when it's real

bad

When it's real

bad

Verse 2

Used to hate the silence

Used to make me think about the old

days

And all the miles in my legs

The late flights and missed birth

days

Out here I can hear your heartbeat

I can hear the start of a long

sigh

I can hear the song of the robin

Pre-Chorus

I haven't wrote my own in a long

time

And it's just

fine

Chorus

'Cause

I don't need my

name back

Throw my

notebook in the basement

Oh, I

love you

And I can't

fake that for a

moment

We go way back

We go

way

back

Tell me I don't need

options

That I have

substance

That I'm important

If it's

only for letting

dogs out

Sweeping

porches

To make me nothing

Take me

way

back

We go

way

back

Interlude

Verse 3

The little pebble marks on your car door

The sound of your feet on the gra

vel

Said I'm always tryna run from what I'm known for

Baby, that's the thing about a sha

dow

I've never seen the rain fall so hard

Honey, we're north of nowhere

now

Heaven is a drink in the backyard

Pre-Chorus

As we watch the storm touch

down

And it's pouring

out

Chorus

And

I don't need my

name back

Throw my

notebook in the basement

Oh, I

love you

And I can't

fake that for a

moment

We go way back

We go

way

back

Tell me I don't need

options

That I have

substance

That I'm important

If it's

only for letting

dogs out

Sweeping

porches

Well make me nothing

Take me

way

back

We go

way

back

Outro

Take me

way, way

back

We go

way

back
