  • It wasn't just like a movie
    The rain didn't soak through my clothes, down to my skin
    I'm driving away and I, I guess you could say
    This is the last time I'll drive this way again
    Lost in the gray and I try to grab at the fray
    'Cause I, I still love you but I can't

    Bye, bye, to everything I thought was on my side
    Bye, bye, baby
    I want you bad but it's come down to nothing
    And all I have is your sympathy
    'Cause you took me home but you just couldn't keep me
    Bye, bye, baby
    Bye, bye, baby

    The picture frame is empty
    On the dresser, vacant just like me
    I see your writing on the dash
    Then back to your hesitation
    I was so sure of everything
    Everything I thought we'd always have
    Guess I never doubted it
    Then the here and the now floods in
    Feels like I'm becoming a part of your past

    Bye, bye, to everything I thought was on my side
    Bye, bye, baby
    I want you bad but it's come down to nothing
    And all I have is your sympathy
    'Cause you took me home but you just couldn't keep me
    Bye, bye, baby

    There's so much that I can't touch
    You're all I want but it's not enough this time
    And all the pages are just slipping through my hands
    And I'm so scared of how this ends

    Bye, bye, to everything I thought was on my side
    Bye, bye, baby
    I want you bad but it's come down to nothing
    And all I have is your sympathy
    'Cause you took me home but you just couldn't keep me

    Bye, bye, to everything I thought was on my side
    Bye, bye, baby
    I want you bad but it's come down to nothing
    And all I have is your sympathy
    'Cause you took me home but you just couldn't keep me
    Oh, you took me home, I thought you were gonna keep me
    Bye, bye, baby
