Juke Ross
Trading Places (Acoustic)
[Verse 1]
No need to say it
But I'm thinking 'bout you
Hate that I hate it
Still can't hide from the truth
You wanted more, couldn't give you my all
Got lost in the woods, but you're close to my heart
No need to say it
But I'm thinking 'bout you

[Pre-Chorus]
We're trading places, all my friends say
"Time to let it go", but they don't know when I'm alone
It's just empty spaces where you used to live
You would ask me to stay home and sleep until late

[Chorus]
And every time that I said, "Not today"
You made me promise that I'd never change
Now we are trading places 'cause you're walking away
Trading places and I've got the pain

[Verse 2]
Sudden calm in the violence
Certain thrill in the blues
We've rewired our heartstrings 'cause
We're too scared to lose
We thought the loving would never decay
Even when you knew that I couldn't stay and
Now we are
[Pre-Chorus]
Trading places, all my friends say
"Time to let it go", but they don't know when I'm alone
It's just empty spaces where you used to live
You would ask me to stay home and sleep until late

[Chorus]
And every time that I said, "Not today"
You made me promise that I'd never change
Now we are trading places 'cause you're walking away
Trading places and I've got the pain

[Bridge]
Trading places
We're not the same, so we're walking away
Trading places
Started a fire, got caught in the flames
Trading places
Your love has changed, I'm floating away
And now I've got the pain, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
All these empty spaces where you used to live
You would ask me to stay home and sleep until late

[Chorus]
And every time that I said, "Not today"
You made me promise that I'd never change
Now we are trading places 'cause you're walking away
Trading places and I've got the pain
[Outro]
No need to say it
But I'm thinking 'bout you
