It's been a while since I heard from you

And I know I was the one who chose that

It's just that you got me so confused

'Cause I thought you were the best I ever had

Even your mom texted me the other day

Saying I should come over for a coffee

And I bet if your dog could talk

Would ask about me too

And when you ask how I've been

I know I tend to hide it

'Cause I know you know how I've been

I wonder don't you mind it?

'Cause I've been avoiding places I know you may go

I know that every heart heals

And I should take it slow

But my anxiety keeps saying no

You are the best thing I wish I still had

And I just get so mad

'Cause it just hurts so bad

You are the best thing I wish I still had

And I just get so mad

'Cause it just hurts so bad

Don't get me wrong, I still wish you the best

I just don't know how I'd be if I saw you next

To that girl, oh no

I miss calling you love, feeling your love

So hard to see my babe saying that wasn't enough

It was so hard when I saw you had gone

To the place I wanted to take you to, with her

And when you ask how I've been

I wish I could say

That I'd be better

If you had chosen to stay

'Cause I've been avoiding places I know you may go

I know that every heart heals

And I should take it slow

But my anxiety keeps saying no

You are the best thing I wish I still had

And I just get so mad

'Cause it just hurts so bad

You are the best thing I wish I still had

And I just get so mad

'Cause it just hurts so bad

'Cause I've been avoiding places I know you may go

I know that every heart heals

And I should take it slow

But my anxiety keeps saying no

You are the best thing (The best thing)

I wish I still had (I wish I still had you)

And I just get so mad

'Cause it just hurts so bad (So bad, so bad)

You are the best thing (The best thing)

I wish I still had (I wish I still had you)

And I just get so mad

'Cause it just hurts so bad

I've been avoiding those places

But in the middle of those faces

I keep looking for yours

I keep looking for yours

And I still go

I hope they don't know (hope they don't know)

But I was kinda hoping you would show up
