Never Chase A Boy (Acoustic) Lyrics by Emily James

Foreign Land

2019

[Verse 1]
He left a scar in your smile
And it'll never look quite the same again
Thought he loved you for a while
Thought it would never end
[Pre-Chorus]
But now it hurts to look back
On all the times he held your hand
You gave him all that you had, he took it and ran
[Chorus]
Clear his memory from the shelf
You're so afraid of losing him, that you're losing yourself
It's time to listen to your own voice
Go on and chase your dreams
But never chase a boy
Never chase a boy
[Verse 2]
You see that long dark road
And try to figure out where you misstepped
Somehow you ended up alone
Headed t'wards regret
But the end is in sight
I know it's hard but keep in mind
You get closer to the light
The higher you climb, ooh
[Chorus]
Clear his memory from the shelf, ooh
You're so afraid of losing him, that you're losing yourself
It's time to listen to your own voice, mmm
Go on and chase your dreams
But never chase a boy
Never chase a boy
[Bridge]
'Cause now you're faced with two paths
One is sand, and one is snow
You could follow his tracks
Or make your own
[Chorus]
Clear his memory from the shelf
You're so afraid of losing him, that you're losing yourself
It's time to listen to your own voice
Go on and chase your dreams
But never chase a boy
Never chase a boy
Never chase a boy
Oh, never chase a boy
