Break Up in Reverse

The tears on your face, climb back into your eyes

A little less on your nerves, and a little more on your mind

Make up before we fight, dream before we sleep

Slowly getting better than we've ever been

Things we should've never said

Just crawl right back into our heads

Hear you say to me

"Leave, don't, please"

I wish we could break up in reverse

Every night would get better instead of getting worse

I'd watch you slowly slip back into my hands

Say goodbye to me in the beginning

And love me in the end

And love me in the end

Oh-oh

You'd be on your way back from Massachusetts

Bet it breaks the hearts of stars when we use 'em as excuses

And wish upon a stranger, even though we know it's useless

'Cause all I want's the night back when your best friend introduced us

I wish we could break up in reverse

Every night would get better instead of getting worse

I'd watch you slowly slip back into my hands

Say goodbye to me in the beginning

And love me in the end

And love me in the end

Things we should have never said

Just crawl right back into our heads

I can hear you scream

"Leave, don't, please"

I wish we could break up in reverse

Wouldn't have to remember all the ways that it hurts

I'd watch you slowly slip back into my hands

Say goodbye to me in the beginning

And love me in the end

Love me in the end

Love me in the end

Love me in the end
