[Intro]
We've grown so fast
In a reality that's hardly built to last
Couldn't I still believe in something better?
I'm not the first nor the last
To be awake through every night
Coming to terms with getting older
[Verse 1]
Well, maybe I'm still the same in your eyes
But you should know, you're not in mine
But living in a shell unnoticed
Has put me out of line, unfocused
Still again, we refrain, we're afraid of nothing
Will it be unspoken?
It's not unlike every night that I stayed home
[Chorus]
It's better you never said hello
I'm sure it's easier when it's safe enough and you're in love
But I'm the one who's better off
I've been reliving every fantasy I've had all this time
And you've been nothing but the best thing on my mind
[Verse 2]
But you know, you know you're worth it when it's obvious I'm alone
And now that I'm older, it's getting easier to show
But I've been living up the past again, it never ends in progress
And you can try to choose, but the world keeps changing around you
[Chorus]
Better you never said hello
I'm sure it's easier when it's safe enough and you're in love
But I'm the one who's better off
I've been reliving every fantasy I've had all this time
And you've been nothing but the best thing on my mind
[Bridge]
Oh, you don't mistake attraction
No, you take what I've been missing
(Oh, you don't mistake attraction)
Believing every hint that I made, you noticed
You'd never even know what it takes to show it
(No, you take what I've been missing)
I still can't help but worry about
The way you make me run around
Believing every hint that I made, you noticed
You'd never even know what it takes to show it
I still can't help but worry about
The way you make me run around
[Chorus]
It's better you never said hello
I'm sure it's easier when it's safe enough and you're in love
But I'm the one who's better off
I've been reliving every fantasy I've had all this time
And you've been nothing but the best thing on my mind
