Souvenirs

Why you gotta be like that?
Why you gotta? Why you gotta?
Why you gotta be like that?
Why you gotta? Why you gotta?

Thought about you today
The photos we took and the words that you'd say
Thought that you'd always be there
The way that you spoke and the way that you'd stare at me

Aaah, I know that those years are gone
But I still cannot seem to let go
All these memories stuck in ticket stubs
You linger for so long

The snow globe from Dubai, I cannot say goodbye
The fridge magnet from Hong Kong
And the wooden barrel man from Baguio land
All these souvenirs I wish I could wash away like sand

Why you gotta be like that?
Why you gotta? Why you gotta?

Look to my left, look to my right
I see people I just wanna like
Would you let me take y'all home?
Show me places that two have never known

Aaah, I know that those years are gone
But I cannot seem to let go
Our story's just a bookmark
I lost the plot so long ago

The jacket that you left at the bottom of my stairs
The dandruff that's still on my comb
The copy of the book about lovers and crooks
All these souvenirs I wish I could wash away like snow

Da da-da-da-da
Da da-da-da-da
Why can't I seem to let go?

Why can't I seem to let go? (Why you gotta be like that?)
Why can't I let go? (Why you gotta?)

Oh, I know that those years are gone
But I still cannot seem to let go
I still want to believe in love
But this shit I gotta throw away

The photo of your mom, your old CD-Rom
With the songs that you sung out of key
The folders you left on my desktop to help me
Remember your promise to me
