Past Burn Lyrics by May

2024

VERSE
Think it’s been a few months or more
Since the night you shut the door
Said "I think we’ll leave it there"
Hit me like a shock, to the heart, I was aching
Hoping you had mistaken

But I got used to let it go
Had everything under control
I walk in and you’re by the bar
Flashing back to every touch, every feeling
God, I thought I was healing

PRE-CHORUS
But I still hope for more, cause

CHORUS
You let me love you
Just for a minute
I feel my heart burn
You’re done, I’m waiting
I got to know you
I got to feel it
But we let the past burn
You’re gone, wе’re fading

VERSE 2
Think I stayed a little long
I tеll you that I’m going home
Said good to see you here tonight
Maybe that’s the end, and we both understand, we’re holding on for the last time
We’ll stay a fine line
Not meant to be forevermore
So I leave

PRE-CHORUS
But I I won’t forget, cause

CHORUS
You let me love you
Just for a minute
I feel my heart burn
You’re done, I’m waiting
I got to know you
I got to feel it
But we let the past burn
You’re gone, we’re fading

OUTRO
Don’t look at me the way you do
I'm trying to get over you
You’re gone, we’re fading far away

Our past is burning up in smoke
Will I ever let you go
I really wanted you to stay

Don’t look at me the way you do
I’m trying to get over you
You’re gone, we’re fading far away
