I was okay with giving you space that you really needed
Now I have to try and think of my life without you in it
I know that you said that nothing would change, but how can I trust you?
Based on my past, love doesn't last, so why would it with you?
So if you're really leaving, let me know
You can pack all of your things and go
But you can't take Bon Iver, my long brown hair
August stars and northeast air
Or anything I learned to love with you
Like the way the stormy New York City nights
Were always ours, but now they're mine
'Cause if I have to live with losing you
I'm not gonna lose me too
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
I'm not gonna lose me too
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
It took seven years for us to get here, and now we're in danger
I always thought that you'd be the one who'd give me forever
I'm still gonna keep the good parts of me, if I can't have you
I'm not gonna beg somebody to stay if they don't want to
So if you're really leaving, let me know
You can pack all of your things and go
But you can't take Bon Iver, my long brown hair
August stars and northeast air
Or anything I learned to love with you
Like the way the stormy New York City nights
Were always ours, but now they're mine
'Cause if I have to live with losing you
I'm not gonna lose me too
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
I'm not gonna lose me too
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
'Cause I'm good on my own (oh, oh, oh, oh)
So pack your bags and go
I'm good on my own
So pack your bags and go
But you can't take Bon Iver, my long brown hair
August stars and northeast air
Or anything I learned to love with you
'Cause I'm not gonna lose me too
