One More Girl

i hope you get to read this letter
it’s traveled my heart, my soul, the roads and the weather
all the way to you from where you left me standing alone
and you know, you’re never gonna do much better

the skyline here is usually pretty
when there aren’t storm clouds that swallow the city
and the rain may keep falling down to maybe flood this ground
but i’m not, i’m not drowning in pity

chorus:
i’m all right, i promise, my heart can take this
another crashing love
and you’re just one more girl
who failed to see what she was passing up

best thing for you, but what’s that matter?
a good friend, like i’m supposed to feel flattered
say you love someone, six months you run, it’s in your script, you can’t commit
you feel what’s real and you scatter

chorus

you’ve got a new boyfriend in tow
but in three months, you’ll be alone
run, run, til you’re all out of breath
turn around and you have nothing left

run, run, it’s a shame you won’t stay
but somewhere, you’ll regret this someday
cause i loved you, but i guess that wasn’t good enough

i thought so much of you before
yeah, i thought so much of you before

chorus
