Gut Feeling

God, it feels like I'm 14 again
Counting all the kisses on your texts
So the morning that you sent one less
I knew it was the end

Then I remembered when I turned 19
And you prioritised your football team
To play Five-a-side in the Sunday League
I had to lie to my friends

And so I made up excuses
Said, "Oh, God, he's so useless
He's just double booked
And doesn't usually do this"
But really the truth is
You knew what you were doing
You were counting down the days

But I should've known that you were gonna walk away
'Cause I saw the signs on our first date
But I was blinded, head up in the sky believing
And oh-oh-oh-oh, ho-oh, oh
And you always swore that you were gonna stick around
But deep down I always had my doubts
I would hide it, but I always thought you'd be leaving
I had a gut feeling

You were lucky that I was 18
And just as blonde as I was naive
'Cause if you hurt me, now you wouldn't last a week
I'd get with all of your friends

Instead, I made up excuses
Said "Oh god he's so useless
He's just showing off
And doesn't usually do this"
But really the truth is
You knew what you were doing
You were counting down the days

But I should've known that you were gonna walk away
'Cause I saw the signs on our first date
But I was blinded, head up in the sky believing
And oh-oh-oh-oh, ho-oh, oh
And you always swore that you were gonna stick around
But deep down I always had my doubts
I would hide it, but I always thought you'd be leaving

I gotta trust my gut when it comes to love
'Cause if I had it wouldn't have hurt so much
I gotta trust my gut when it comes to love

I gotta trust my gut when it comes to love
'Cause if I had it wouldn't have hurt so much
I gotta trust my gut when it comes to love
Could've been the one but you fucked it up

But I should've known that you were gonna walk away
'Cause I saw the signs on our first date
But I was blinded, head up in the sky believing
And oh-oh-oh-oh, ho-oh, oh
And you always swore that you were gonna stick around
But deep down I always had my doubts
I would hide it, but I always thought you'd be leaving
I had a gut feeling
