  • Hmm

    You open your heart
    Open your mind
    Let somebody in
    Take a walk through you past
    The good and the bad
    Decide you can do this again
    But it's supposed to feel different
    Supposed to feel safe
    Safe like going home
    But just like sand
    It slips through your hands
    Before you know it your faith is gone

    Every late night call,
    Every morning kiss
    All the "I can't live without yous"
    And you say goodbye like this
    Don't you understand?
    Do you even care?
    If you love me like you said you did
    Well you'd still be standing here
    You think you know somebody yeah

    It's all just a blur
    The nights are the worst,
    This bed still smells like you
    Wake up from the dreams
    Catch my breath, it takes everything I've got to move
    Yeah it could've been a long walk talk to fix this,
    The seas were getting rough, but I thought we were worth this
    Worth a try, worth a fight, show you what I know, yeah

    Every late night call,
    Every morning kiss
    All the "I can't live without yous"
    And you say goodbye like this
    Don't you understand?
    Do you even care?
    If you love me like you said you did
    Well you'd still be standing here
    You think you know somebody yeah

    Tell me where did you go, when the lights came up?
    I don't even know you anymore
    You're holding a knife I could see things better
    Yeah you've done this before

    You think you know
    Hmm
    Yeah, you think you know somebody
    You think you know
    You think you know
    You think you know
    You think you know
    You think you know

    Every late night call,
    Every morning kiss
    All the "I can't live without yous"
    And you say goodbye like this
    Don't you understand?
    Do you even care?
    If you love me like you said you did
    Well you'd still be standing here
    You think you know somebody

    You think you know somebody, yeah yeah yeah
    You think you know
    You think you know
    You think you know somebody, yeah

    You think you know
    You think you know
    You think you know somebody
