Should've figured that you'd go back to New York Don't consider me when you run back to her You don't have to hide it, I know why you went Said you needed space, I know better than that Mm, mm, mm, mm Could've fought for you but I just let you leave Hurt too much to consider you didn't love me The mountains of LA will weep through the night Driving down sunset's a terrible sight Mm, mm, mm, mm Left me and the ocean for your old flame Holding back my tears, I couldn't make you stay Can't quit this, so damn wicked to leave California and me I imagine you holding her in your arms Laughing 'bout how I thought that you were the one I get so anxious and maybe I'm young The first sign of trouble and I bite my tongue Mm, mm, mm, mm Left me and the ocean for your old flame Holding back my tears, I couldn't make you stay Can't quit this, so damn wicked to leave California and me
