Yorke
Thought I Could
[Verse 1]
I'm all out of words
To tell you I’m leaving this town
I've always felt so out of place
And you thought I'd always be around

[Pre-Chorus]
But nothing has to change
’Cause no-one is to blame

[Chorus]
Always wanted to leave this place
But I never really thought I would
Always dreaming of wider spaces
I never really thought I should
But you're holding on to me
Begging me not to leave
But my mind's already far away
Always wanted to leave this place
But I never really thought I would
And I never really thought I could

[Verse 2]
I've got my suitcase packed
And I've tied up my loose ends
The air is filled with consequence
Unsaid words and old regrets
[Pre-Chorus]
But nothing has to change
'Cause no-one is to blame

[Chorus]
Always wanted to leave this place
But I never really thought I would
Always dreaming of wider spaces
I never really thought I should
But you're holding on to me
Begging me not to leave
But my mind's already far away
Always wanted to leave this place
But I never really thought I would
And I never really thought I could

Never really, never really, never really
And I never really thought I could

[Bridge]
I’m driving down this one-way street
I’m so choked up, can barely breathe
You whisper things that you don't mean
In the hope that I never leave
Without you
But I’m not yours to keep
I hope you forgive me
[Outro]
'Cause nothing has to change
Never really, never really, never really
'Cause no-one is to blame
But you're holding on to me
Begging me not to leave
But my mind’s already far away
Always wanted to leave this place
But I never really thought I would
And I never even thought I could
