In The Back Of My Mind - Jeffrey James

What if I said

I was never over you

And there’s nothing I can do to change that

Please know I tried

To forget what we were like

But the memories always find their way back

Whenever someone says your name

Or when I’m lying wide awake

I try to block you out

But some things never change

In back of my mind

You carved out a space

And you come back every time

I find somebody else to take your place

It’s not about, holding on to a love that we used to have

And I swear that I’m not trying to get you back

But for the rest of my life, you’ll be

In the back of my mind

In the back of my mind

I know the truth

That it never would’ve have worked

But that doesn’t mean it hurt me any less

Still moving on’s

Not the same as letting go

Part of me has always known I guess

Whenever someone says your name

Or when I’m lying wide awake

I try to block you out

But something’s never change

In back of my mind

You carved out a space

And you come back every time

I find somebody else to take your place

It’s not about, holding on to a love that we used to have

And I swear that I’m not trying to get you back

But for the rest of my life, you’ll be

In the back of my mind

In the back of my mind

Coffee out on your back balcony

That stupid house on our favorite street

I used to think it would be you and me

Living there

In back of my mind

You carved out a space

And you come back every time

I find somebody else to take your place

It’s not about, holding on to a love that we used to have

And I swear that I’m not trying to get you back

But for the rest of my life, you’ll be

In the back of my mind

(Coffee out on your back balcony

That stupid house on our favorite street)

In the back of my mind

(I used to think it would be you and me

Living there,)

In the back of my mind
