Lyrics

[Verse 1]
(Daytrip took it to 10, hey)
[Verse 2]
I played the ones you know
I took you all the way
That was yesterday
I wore your favorite clothes
I said the things you'd say
That was yesterday
[Verse 3]
So if you loved me so much
Why'd you go?
Keep yourself back
Keep on lying on
I can only breathe in
Well I
[Verse 4]
Dive in
Smiling
[Verse 5]
Life is not the same if we're miles away
I was your champion, I did everything your way
[Verse 6]
We both swam out to sea
You lost me willingly
But that was yesterday (That was yesterday)
You knew it would get dark
You made sure I would need you in every way
[Verse 7]
So if you loved me so much
Why'd you go?
Keep yourself back
Keep on lying on
I could only breathe in
Well I
[Verse 8]
Dive in
Smiling
[Verse 9]
Life is not the same if we're miles away
I was your champion, I did everything your way
Life is not the same if we're miles away
I was your champion, I did everything to help you stay
