Thinking of You

You know I read some old journals the contents disturbed me
My younger me seems to be
Just as lost as the girl sitting here see
It's hard just to think of it rationally

Am I really any farther then I was when
Cause I'm just as broken hearted as I was then
Falling in love then falling apart
Falling in love then falling apart

I don't even know how to speak from my heart
Take me back to the start to the time and the place
Should I even try again or would I make the same mistakes
Would I fall on my face trip on a lace

I used to think that for love that I didn't have the space
But now I realize that I just don't have the weight
Like I'm sorry ma'am you can't bring that to the gate
You're gonna have to take something out

And leave it behind watch it unwind get with the times
Let it go (let it go)
In the wind of propellers on planes
In stories you write down on napkins on trains

In spinning wheel of an automobiles
And in the moment that you realize that everything had changed
Wait, until you see what comes next
Cause what comes next is

Never did I ever stop thinking of you
Will I ever stop thinking of you
Never did I ever stop thinking of you
And as time goes on, it keeps being true
Stop thinking of you, stop thinking of you
Never did I ever stop thinking of you
Will I ever stop thinking of you?

Just another girl that you're drinking about,
Trying to move on but not really sure how
See its the cyclical nature of things
Got me tripping on things I've already seen and
Sewing uneven seams into my jeans

Shit that just sits like tarnished trophies on our mantels
Stubbornly taking up space and keeping
Other things from being put there
Just notches on bedposts that
Catch on our sleeves when we walk by
And snag us on a drunken night

Chased by everything I was racing
Undone by everything that I was running from
My heart was busy making other plans
While I was busy trying not to fall in love

To you I used to be sexy and wild and steppin'
Now I feel like your younger sibling begging for attention just
Give me the key to your subtle direction and
I'll do what's to be expected and regard without question cuz

Never did I ever stop thinking of you
Will I ever stop thinking of you
Never did I ever stop thinking of you
And as time goes on, it keeps being true
Stop thinking of you, stop thinking of you
Never did I ever stop thinking of you
And when I think about forever I'll be thinking of you!
(vamp)
All of it means nothing if you're not madly in love
Search the whole world and then give it all up
Maybe the things you were searching for were there all along
And it's me left here just singin' this sad song

Maybe I miss being in love
Maybe I'd do anything not to have given it up
Maybe I'd burn everything I've built to the ground and
Fuck it all up just to turn this around

Maybe that's just life, the journey I'm on
Maybe it's not a dead straight shot into the sun
All of these words can't fit in my mouth
So I gotta spit faster to get them all out

So unpack your baggage
Leave it behind if you don't need it now
But keep all your journals as records of how
You became the motherfucker you are now

Never did I ever stop thinking of you
Will I ever stop thinking of you
Never did I ever stop thinking of you
And as time goes on, it keeps being true
Stop thinking of you, stop thinking of you
Never did I ever stop thinking of you
Will I ever stop thinking of you?

Yeah I'm feeling a little bit under the weather and
I don't even know if spittin' these sad words will make me feel better
Just singing about something that always and never was forever
Regret was never really one of my words
But these days it lingers on every thought
every raindrop, and every bird
(Flying by, in the sky, baby won't you tell me why)
