[Verse 1]
God, it feels like I'm fourteen again
Counting all the kisses on your texts
So, the morning that you sent one less
I knew it was the end
Then, I remembered when I turned nineteen
And you prioritised your football team
To play five-a-side in the Sunday league
I had to lie to my friends

[Pre-Chorus]
And so I made up excuses
Said, "Oh, God, he's so useless"
He's just double-booked and doesn't usually do this
But, really, the truth is
You knew what you were doing
You were counting down the days

[Chorus]
But I should've known that you were gonna walk away
'Cause I saw the signs on our first date
But I was blinded
Head up in the sky, believing
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
You always swore that you were gonna stick around
But, deep down, I always had my doubts
I would hide it
But I always thought you'd be leaving
I had a gut feeling
[Verse 2]
You were lucky that I was eighteen
And just as blonde as I was naïve
'Cause, if you hurt me now, you wouldn't last a week
I'd get with all of your friends

[Pre-Chorus]
Instead, I made up excuses
Said, "Oh, God, he's so useless"
He's just showing off and doesn't usually do this
But, really, the truth is
You knew what you were doing
You were counting down the days

[Chorus]
But I should've known that you were gonna walk away
'Cause I saw the signs on our first date
But I was blinded
Head up in the sky, believing
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
You always swore that you were gonna stick around
But, deep down, I always had my doubts
I would hide it
But I always thought you'd be leaving

[Bridge]
I gotta trust my gut when it comes to love
'Cause, if I had, it wouldn't have hurt so much
I gotta trust my gut when it comes to love
I gotta trust my gut when it comes to love
'Cause, if I had, it wouldn't have hurt so much
I gotta trust my gut when it comes to love
You could've been the one but you fucked it up
[Chorus]
But I should've known that you were gonna walk away
'Cause I saw the signs on our first date
But I was blinded
Head up in the sky, believing
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
You always swore that you were gonna stick around
But, deep down, I always had my doubts
I would hide it
But I always thought you'd be leaving
I had a gut feeling
