When I asked you if you had let it go
Like I had a few weeks ago
You gave me a look like you still weren't sure
But I'm not on your time anymore
So when you figure it out, give me a call
I'll pick up if I have time to talk
Or I won't; I could be asleep
Or doing something else that makes me happy
And not worrying about what could have been
I thought i was a fool
But baby that was then.
Now I'm doing whatever makes me smile
I hope that you are too.
I'll check in in a while
When you said you didn't think this could work
My first thought's “I fucked up” -- yeah I'm a jerk
But I played it in my head a couple thousand times
And can't see a way we could have made it right
But it's not so bad. I’m doing what i want to do
I'm playing guitar instead of squabbling with you
And i hope you're holding up
Cause i love you baby, and that won't stop
But i'm not worrying about what could have been
If we hadn't come unglued
If we hadn't found an end
I'm going out on the weekend
I'm gonna have another round
Now I can sleep in
So pour the whiskey ‘til I'm tired
Or I'll go to bed at 10PM
Being sad ain't required
Or recommended
I'm not worrying about what could have been
I like it on my own
I got plenty of friends
I got a lot of good things going
I'm writing lots of songs
I'm playing in this band
