Lyrics
(What I mean is the way I see it)
(I'm one heartbreak closer to you)
Another "almost perfect"
Didn't work, but totally worth it
Better to have loved and lost my mind
Than lose the nerve to even try
Another conversation
Awkward, but the ice is breaking
I've been in some shit relationships
But I remain an optimist
It's not a game I'm playing
It's not a thrill I'm chasing
More like a space I'm saving
And I don't even know your name
But if it gets me to you then it ain't wasted time
With every "so close," I'm closer to the rest of my life
Another bad first date (check)
Another "nothing left to say" (check)
What I mean is the way I see it
I'm one heartbreak closer to you, you
One heartbreak closer to you
One heartbreak closer to-
One heartbreak closer to-
Hey baby, can I call you "baby?", is that okay?
I don't even know you, but I can't wait to know you someday
Imagine someday when we look back
I'll thank my past for giving me my future better half
I'm sorry for the time it's taking
But I'ma make it worth the waitin'
And all this wrong love that I learned from
Was just practice for the right one
If it gets me to you then it ain't wasted time
With every "so close," I'm closer to the rest of my life
Another "just got played" (check)
A shot of bourbon for the pain (check)
What I mean is the way I see it
I'm one heartbreak closer to you
You
One heartbreak closer to-
One heartbreak closer to-
It's kinda strange to miss
Someone I haven't met yet
Someone I haven't kissed yet
But I'll go through it all if it
Gets me to you then it ain't wasted time
With every "so close," I'm closer to the rest of my life
Another sad goodbye (check)
Another sleepless night (check)
What I mean is the way I see it
I'm one heartbreak closer to you
(I'm one heartbreak closer to you)
One heartbreak closer to-
One heartbreak closer to-
One heartbreak closer to
You
One heartbreak, one heartbreak
You
One heartbreak closer to you
One heartbreak, one heartbreak
One heartbreak closer to-
