[Intro: Mahalia]
Yeah

[Verse 1: Mahalia]
"Could it have been painless?"
Is a question I think about all the time, yeah
Still I don't know what I was thinkin', no
When I let you into my life (Oh-oh)

[Pre-Chorus: Mahalia]
I know it wasn't worth it, but I did it anyway
I couldn't say the words to your face
So I wrote 'em down instead
I wanna remember it as it was
And forget about what it's been (It's been), yeah
And keep that memory inside of my head

[Chorus: Mahalia]
I wanna leave it alone, but I don't know if I can (I wanna leave it alone)
If only you had never done wrong, you could always be right in my head
I wanna leave it alone, I don't know if I can (I wanna leave it alone, but)
If only I was where you bеlong, you could always stay right in my head

[Verse 2: Joyce Wrice]
And I can't help but reminiscе
Ignorin' all the things you did wrong
Building you a door in my wall
Can we just go back to when you were the one?
That fall for me, wanted me, are you still that one?
[Pre-Chorus: Mahalia & Joyce Wrice]
I know it wasn't worth it, but I did it anyway
I couldn't say the words to your face
So I wrote 'em down instead
I wanna remember it as it was (As it was)
And forget about what it's been, yeah, yeah
And keep that memory inside of my head

[Chorus: Mahalia & Joyce Wrice]
I wanna leave it alone, but I don't know if I can (I wanna leave it alone)
If only you had never done wrong, you could always be right in my head
I wanna leave it alone, I don't know if I can (I wanna leave it alone)
If only I was where you belong, you could always stay right in my head

[Bridge: Mahalia & Joyce Wrice]
It's out of my control, no, I can't change you (You, you)
If only you knew how hard it's been for me to shake you (You babe)
It's out of my control, no, I can't change you (No, I can't change you)
If only you knew how hard it's been for me to shake you, yeah, yeah (Shake you, shake you, yeah)

[Chorus: Mahalia & Joyce Wrice]
In my head, I wanna leave it alone, but I don't know if I can (I wanna leave it alone)
If only you had never done wrong, you could always be right in my head
I wanna leave it alone, I don't know if I can (I wanna leave it alone), yeah
If only that was where you belong, you could always stay right in my head
[Outro: Mahalia]
In my head, in my head
In my head, in my head, no
