Don’t you have to go? Lyrics by Jonny West

2022

[Verse 1]
Don't you have to go?
Don't act like you're still mine
I thought you said my love was just something to pass the time
It's alright I don't hate you
Not that you would care
I think you'd be too busy looking at yourself to see that I'm not there
[Verse 2]
And it's so sad to see you mad
At the world that won't love you back
When you had a love that lasted through it all
But that's okay, you'll be okay
You'll settle for somebody new someday
And only think of what we could've had
When you're lying on your back
And it's not even half as good
[Chorus]
So for now let's fall right back in
Tell me about how
You haven't seen the changes that I made
And maybe you should see my place
We'll dance around in conversation
Waiting on my invitation
And right before I have you back again
[Verse 3]
Don't you have to go?
Thanks for stopping by
I know that you were hoping there'd be one last tear to dry
But I don't think about you, not anymore than I should
I know your close friend that I ran into while out
Probably said that I looked good
Did it make you sad to hear I'm well?
Without you out raising hell
With all my friends throwing our hands up in the air
[Verse 4]
So call my phone, see if I'm home
Drive on over down that coast
And when you take that exit hold your breath and pull up right outside
I know you and you know me
And there's nothing left to hide
[Chorus]
So for now let's fall right back in
Tell me about how
You haven't seen the changes that I made
And maybe you should see my place
We'll dance around in conversation
Waiting on my invitation
And right before I have you back again
[Bridge]
Don't you have to go?
Don't you have to go?
Don't you have to go?
Don't you have to go?
[Outro]
I know he's waiting for you
So better make it back
If you stay any longer I may let my heart attack
I'll see you in your dreams love, be there from time to time
And when you wake I'll hope I left more than a footprint when I crossed your mind
And I'll be glad to let you go
When I'm out and playing shows
I just hope that I can see you sing along
And after our last curtains close, meet me in the second row
So I can catch up with a friend I used to know
To see where this could end
And it will all depend
On if you have to go
