Seattle
You said that you needed
To move to Seattle
Far away from the heat and
Living like a real adult
If you ever feel the rain is getting too cold
You know I will always be here with the sun
If you're ever in LA
You know you still got my name
I'm scared that in 20 years
I'll take my kids to Seattle
Said I'll know it when I hear it
A laugh that I used to know
And I'll stand real far and look at your life
And maybe your eyes will make their way to mine
And maybe you'll even cry
And you'll think back on when you had a band
And the girl you abandoned
Loved her and left her
Never told her why
You'll think back on LA
You'll always recognize her face
Someday you'll look at me
And realize
It was not okay
If you were gonna leave
Never should've held me
What you did was cruel you know that
But I could never blame you so I
Watched you leave and pack your bags
Wanted it to be you so bad
But you really hurt me so bad
When you said you couldn't stay
And I was too shy to say
I hope you stay
When the weather gets colder
And we're a little older
When I've worn out your t-shirt
And you've lost all my letters
I hope you think back on when you had a band
And the girl you abandoned
A lovely summer
Ended in goodbye
If you're ever in LA
Maybe this time you'll stay
To move to Seattle
Far away from the heat and
Living like a real adult
If you ever feel the rain is getting too cold
You know I will always be here with the sun
If you're ever in LA
You know you still got my name
I'm scared that in 20 years
I'll take my kids to Seattle
Said I'll know it when I hear it
A laugh that I used to know
And I'll stand real far and look at your life
And maybe your eyes will make their way to mine
And maybe you'll even cry
And you'll think back on when you had a band
And the girl you abandoned
Loved her and left her
Never told her why
You'll think back on LA
You'll always recognize her face
Someday you'll look at me
And realize
It was not okay
If you were gonna leave
Never should've held me
What you did was cruel you know that
But I could never blame you so I
Watched you leave and pack your bags
Wanted it to be you so bad
But you really hurt me so bad
When you said you couldn't stay
And I was too shy to say
I hope you stay
When the weather gets colder
And we're a little older
When I've worn out your t-shirt
And you've lost all my letters
I hope you think back on when you had a band
And the girl you abandoned
A lovely summer
Ended in goodbye
If you're ever in LA
Maybe this time you'll stay
