Out Instead

I didn’t want to admit it right now

But I know it needs to be said

I should have kept you closer somehow

But I pushed you out instead

So many times I’ve had something that

I knew I didn’t wanna live without

And so many times I’ve let it disappear

Not knowing why or how

And now she's gone and I’d understand

Why she wouldn’t want to see me again

She’s moving on and now she wants someone

Someone who can keep a friend

I didn’t want to admit it right now

But I know it needs to be said

I should have kept you closer to somehow

And pushed her out instead

I’ve heard and heard again and again and again

‘Bout how I’m young and how I’ll be fine

But you were so precious to me and

You’ll never leave my mind

I should have kept you closer somehow

But I pushed you out instead

I should have kept you closer somehow

But I pushed you out instead
