Past Tense

Baby, I found a new piece of you
Buried inside me this afternoon
Next to the memories I should've put in a box

Baby, there must be a piece of me
Still can't believe that we're history
I called you my girlfriend again and I know I should stop

But I can't face the truth

Don't you know I can't let you go
So I just pretend like you're still coming home
I left on the light and unlocked the door
'Cause I miss the sound of your steps on the floor

I know that you're gone and everything's changed
So why do I love you exactly the same?
It doesn't make sense
Us in the past tense

Baby, I think there's a part of me
That wishes I could take back everything
Go back in time and erase the first night that we met

But I can't face the truth

Don't you know I can't let you go?
So I just pretend like you're still coming home
I left on the light and unlocked the door
'Cause I miss the sound of your steps on the floor

I know that you're gone and everything's changed
So why do I love you exactly the same?
It doesn't make sense
Us in the past tense

Oh, oh-do-do-do
Oh-do-do-do, oh-do-do-do (us in the past tense)
Do, lo-do-do-do
Oh-do-do-do, oh-do-do-do

Don't you know I can't let you go?
So I just pretend like you're still coming home
I left on the light and unlocked the door
'Cause I miss the sound of your steps on the floor

I know that you're gone and everything's changed (oh)
So why do I love you exactly the same? (Oh)
It doesn't make sense
Us in the past tense
