lyrics

Oh shit
I guess I meant all those things I said
Out in the parking lot on lunch break
Oh shit
I guess I meant the part about your smile
And the way it made my heart ache
Now I wish those words were only words
They were the stupidest things I ever said or heard

If you love someone, set them free
And if they don’t come back, then you’re fucked forever

Oh shit
I guess I meant all those things I said
On our one-month anniversary
Oh shit
I guess I meant the part about the way
I would lose it if you left me
Now I wish those words were only words
They were the truest things I ever said or heard

If you love someone, set them free
And if they don’t come back, then you’re fucked forever
And ever and ever, Amen

And the tide rolls out
And it won’t come in again
And the sun goes down
And it won’t come up again
Not even if you cry
Call her name, or catch her eye
When you screw up this bad
You don’t get to say goodbye

If you love someone, set them free
And if they don’t come back, then you’re fucked forever
If you love someone, set them free
And if they don’t come back, it’s ’cause there’s
someone better
Well I set you free, yeah, now how about that?
And if you don’t come back, then you suck forever.
