Emily G Lyrics by Courting

New Last Name

2023

[Verse 1]
What's a couple pounds to a girl like me
Well, I've been breathing softly, only since the 80s
I see you all the time in magazines
Oh, you're so pretty, so I tell you you're pretty
[Verse 2]
You said when you got home you'd have time for me
So I took a taxi, passed out in the backseat
Pictured you spinning me round' like some movie scene
When I woke up you weren't with me, the headlights left me dizzy
And our song was on like—
[Pre-Chorus]
"Oh, Em G I hope you're okay
Well, I can't believe it's happening again”
[Chorus]
And I know it gets better
It needs to hurt sometimes
I know you kept calling
Well hell, I called five times tonight
And I, oh I
And I could lose myself
But only for a minute
And I can't seem to talk myself back into it
And I, oh I
[Post-Chorus]
And I can't believe that you've settled down
And I can't believe that you're better now
[Verse 3]
We were running for the school bus
And the TV schedule never changed
It's a managed decline
Compared to the 60s
2009, it looks good on paper and
Everything looks like a landing strip these days
So I find your number
I call you and I say—
[Pre-Chorus]
"Oh, Em G I hope you're okay
Well, I can't believe it's happening again"
[Chorus]
Well, I know it gets better
It needs to hurt sometimes
I know you kept calling
Well hell, I called five times tonight
And I, oh I
And I could lose myself
But only for a minute
And I can't seem to talk myself back into it, I
And I, oh I
[Post-Chorus]
And I can't believe that you've settled down
And I can't believe that you're better now
[Bridge]
And I didn't mind all the long nights
(Only because) You were there the whole time
(And I) Would take the stains out of your jeans
You kept everything intertwined
And I Tried my best but I can't lie
(When I'm with them) I think about you the whole time
(When I'm with them) I think about you the whole time
(When I'm with them) I think about you the whole time
[Outro]
And I can't believe that you've settled down
And I can't believe that you're better now
