The College Breakup

Your flight was laid over in Boston

But you only had two hours and I was still in class

But I zoned out of the lecture, getting lost in a picture that you left

On my phone when I saw you last

And I still call you and talk to you till dawn

And you say that you still miss me too

And I told you I'm trying to move on

But I keep telling my friends about you

And they all say, oh, I did the college breakup too

And it's hard, but we're too young to care

But oh, they never loved like me and you

And it's true, if we do, if we dare

I talked to some girls at a party

(Do you even go here?)

I didn't do anything but it's good to know I can

But when I'm drunk I just ask you, what are we?

And you shrug, you tell me you miss me, you tell me there's still a plan

And I know that we have an eight-month curfew

And that's fine, we'll survive through that

But I'm just starting to feel I deserve you

And starting to think, to know you love me back

But oh, this is the college breakup now

This was the part we said that we'd have to be strong

And oh, I'm doing my best but I don't know how

How to sit on a twin XL and write a song

Tell me you remember the months before September

Oh, we'll get together in due time when we know that we could never

Let go of forever, call me up whenever, it's true, I'm begging

Tell me you remember the months before September

Oh, we'll get together in due time when we know that we could never

Let go of forever

Your flight is delayed here in Boston

Just twenty minutes and I'd be pulling up to Terminal C

But fuck, I can't get past security

And besides, what if I just waltzed in?

Would you cry? Would you laugh? Or would you hate me?

Cause oh, this is the college breakup now

This was the part we said that we'd have to be strong

And oh, I'm doing my best but I don't know how

How to sit on a twin XL and write a song

Yeah, oh, this is the college breakup now

This was the part we said that we'd have to be strong

Oh, this is the college breakup now

Whoa
