He was a rotten SOB I really shoulda got him
Problem was I loved him too much and
How do you cut the ties
To all those firsts when
You’re sifting through a box
Under your bed
The only thing left to keep him alive in your head
In your head
And how do you say goodbye to your first love
And how do you lie to say you’re okay
And what do you do to pass the time
When life is at a standstill
He was an accident just waiting to happen
Don’t know why I let him leave when
All he needs is me loving him
And him loving me
Crying in his arms
Just about to break
The only thing we had was you and me
You and me
And how do you say goodbye to your first love
And how do you lie to say you’re okay
And what do you do to pass the time
When life is at a standstill
What do you think you’re doing
Baby, you’re not welcome here
Anymore, oh
He was a rotten SOB I really shoulda got him
Problem was I loved him too much and
How you do you cut the ties?
And how do you say goodbye to your first love
And how do you lie to say you’re okay
And what do you do to pass the time
And how do you say goodbye to your first love
And how do you lie to say you’re okay
And what do you do to pass the time
When life is at a standstill
