The Fight

This is not a love song, I just miss you

And I'm not sad anymore, just reminiscing

It's been three whole years since we last spoke

When I was drunk at that whiskey bar in Pittsburg

I don't remember much of what we fought about

Only stumbling off to my hotel alone

And oh, my darling, where'd you go?

Thought the storm would pass us soon

But love's a fight and you took flight

Said I'm not worth the fight anymore

So tell me what was I still fighting for?

I thought I saw you at the airport

Outside the restroom, LAX, gate 24

But would you still recognise my face?

I haven't cut my hair in years, I haven't shaved for days

The truth is I've been a reckless mess

I never did know who I was ever since you left

And oh, my darling, where'd you go?

Thought the storm would pass us soon

But love's a fight and you took flight

Said I'm not worth the fight anymore

So tell me what was I still fighting for?

I heard you're heading for the West Coast

Chasing someone else you miss most

While I'm a ghost

For my curiosity

Could you explain what's wrong with me

And why you had to leave?

And oh, my darling, where'd you go?

Thought the storm would pass us soon

But love's a fight and you took flight

Said I'm not worth the fight anymore

And oh, my darling, where'd you go?

Thought the storm would pass us soon

But love's a fight and you took flight

Said I'm not worth the fight anymore

So tell me what was I still fighting for?

This is not a love song, I don't even miss you

I just get sad when I'm reminiscing
