One Way Traffic


And like a street lined with litter on a Sunday morning
You left me bitter, left me with no warning
You had to go. And left me thinking, did you have to go?
And then you sent me a text, and I was desperate to reply
But to tell you that I'm happy, would have been a desperate lie
And every time I talk to you, I struggle not to cry
I still adore you, and I'm sure I should ignore you
And these lists of problems, seem to come without thinking
Almost like they've been rehearsed, and I can feel my heart sinking

It's time to go. The tension makes me feel inclined to go

So will you please stop texting when I'm least expecting? I still love you
And then I went on Facebook and removed all trace but I still love you
And all those songs you'd place are driving me insane, I still love you
And then I'll say it again and embarrass myself, I still love you

As if it wasn't rough enough, when we split-up in the first place
You've made it tough, and you've left us in the worst case scenario
It doesn't have to be this hard, you know
And then you tell me we're friends, and I tell you that it's fine
But we both know I'm pretending, I'm pretending that it's fine
And every time I talk to you, I struggle not to cry
It's getting harder, harder every time
And you almost seem offended, when I ask for some answers
I ask you why it ended, wanting more chances

Your eyes say no. I wouldn't try and change your mind, you know

So will you please stop texting when I'm least expecting? I still love you
And then I went on Facebook and removed all trace but I still love you
And all those songs you'd place are driving me insane, I still love you
And then I'll say it again and embarrass myself, I still love you
So will you please stop texting when I'm least expecting? I still love you
And then I went on Facebook and removed all trace but I still love you
And all those songs you'd place are driving me insane, I still love you
And then I'll say it again and embarrass myself, I still love you

I still love you
I still love you
