The Story of the Last Three Weeks by To Dance Alone Lyrics
I guess it's too much to say 'love'
But at least I can say I had hope
It was the first time in my life
I know it sounds cringy and cliche and so much like teenager basic emo
But it's incredible that you were actually into me
And it's very unlikely, you see
At least in my mind it's how it goes
Two people being each other, having high hopes
But of course...
It has to end one day
And it ended prematurely
But I think I chose the right way
I took you on a date
I felt so wonderful
And in that moment when you
Kissed me and you see
I didn't know how to kiss but I let you teach me
And then I left and thought
All the way down home
About what just happened and I honestly thought
There was something wrong
I didn't quite know what
But I had this uneasy feeling going on
Of course, if I were to tell you right now
You would call me a liar
But I know best what I had running on in my mind
You are my best mistake
We started hanging out a lot
And when I asked you again out
I told you I would be glad
For you to be the first girlfriend I ever had
And you said "what?
Not right now, but in time
Just let me feel ready
To take this step forward
For you to be mine"
That was the first alarm
And then you started to tell me
How you used to kiss that other guy
And how it ended astray
Because you took on different ways
That was the second alarm
We continued going out
Our so-called relationship (not)
Had its moment of glory
On that Wednesday
18th of December
And it was the same day
Of the beginning
Of the falling
Down in what we use to call
Falling out of love
You are my best mistake
I told you, what the fuck are we right now?
We're not friends, but we're not together, how?
And you told me you didn't know
And that you just wanted to have fun
But you unintentionally got attached
And how you feel wrong
That was the third alarm
And after that, things started going down
From that moment on
You weren't as happy to see me
You were never in the mood to talk
You even started out
Making a scandal
Because I didn't grab your butt
And I was being too sentimental
That was the fourth alarm
Next day, you met with your ex
And he kissed you and you let him do it
No regrets
And you told me about it and expected me to accept
And like a foolish person, I applauded you that you came and told me what happened
And I saw nothing wrong with it but
That was the fifth alarm
After that, (I can make it without you)
We only saw each other again once
And it should come as no surprise
That the universes you open when you smile
Were this time closed, waiting for me to say bye-bye
And when I was sitting next to you, trying so desperately to make our lips meet
You were only halfway there, thinking about all the other people you greet
That was the sixth alarm
The following week
All the shit started storming down
You are my best mistake
You never wrote me, I had to look for you
That was the seventh alarm
And when I wrote you, you never asked me something back
That was the eighth alarm
And when I stopped writing, I did not hear from you back
That was the ninth alarm
And when I asked you why you said you just didn't have enough time
That was the tenth alarm
That was the tenth alarm
(It's better for us to remain like this for now...
I mean, it's better
We both know it's better)
It was at this point when I said stop
This has been making me feel sad
And with you, I should feel complete
But you made me feel like shit
Instead of filling in the gaps
You would drill in more holes in my heart
(Let's not make a big deal out of it
It just happened
And whatever happened, happened)
I told you we should just end it right now
You were alright with it
You tried to make a big deal out of it
But I brushed it off
And I just left you with a song
That I hope you'll remember ten years from now on
Never Meant by American Football
I sent you that song because I was trying to break your heart
I feel weird admitting that
I would be so happy if I'd know I did succeed in that
This was the worst best decision in my life
I just want you to realize
What you missed
By choosing to have "fun"
{I'm hopeful for the future to bring me something new
I'm hopeful for the future
I'm hopeful for the future
I'm hopeful for the future)
And now I have to think again
Did I make the right choice
Heart or brain?
And now I have to wonder
Why I am not so sad?
If I'm supposed to be broken
Then why do I feel so glad?
But at least I can say I had hope
It was the first time in my life
I know it sounds cringy and cliche and so much like teenager basic emo
But it's incredible that you were actually into me
And it's very unlikely, you see
At least in my mind it's how it goes
