Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Don't cry or do
Whatever makes you comfortable
I'm tired too
There's nothing left to say
Let's call it truce
'Cause I don't really wanna go to bed like this
[Verse 2]
I'm so sorry
That we're still stuck in the middle
I'm so sorry
'Cause in the moment, I
[Verse 3]
I don't know what it's like to be you
I don't know what it's like but I'm dying to
If I can put myself in your shoes
Then I'll know what it's like to be you
[Verse 4]
Can I kiss you at night?
'Cause I'm not really sure I know
What you want
Are you still mad at me?
I'm hoping not
'Cause maybe we could go to the movies
I know that always cheers us up
[Verse 5]
Aye, I'm so sorry
That we're still stuck in the middle
Yeah, I'm so sorry
'Cause in the moment, I
[Verse 6]
I don't know what it's like to be you
I don't know what it's like but I'm dying to
If I can put myself in your shoes
Then I'll know what it's like to be you
[Verse 7]
Tell me what's inside of your head?
No matter what you say, I won't love you less
And I'll be lying if I said that I do
I don't know what it's like to be you
I don't know what it's like to be you
[Verse 8]
I get worried
I might lose you a little
Every time we
Every time we argue
And get caught up in the moment
[Verse 9]
I don't know what it's like to be you
I don't know what it's like but I'm dying to
If I can put myself in your shoes
Then I'll know what it's like to be you
[Verse 10]
So tell me what's inside of your head?
No matter what you say, I won't love you less
And I'll be lying if I said that I do
I don't know what it's like to be you
I don't know what it's like to be you
I don't know what it's like
