What We Wanted Lyrics by Stephen Dawes

Up At Night

2024

[Verse 1]
It's cold out November
Can't help but remember
Going out and losing all the feeling in our fingers
And I'm on the West Coast
And you're back in the city
Heard you were at our favorite bar
Happy there
[Pre-Chorus]
Without me by your side, does it ever feel strange?
Have you been doing fine, have you even felt a change?
Rebuilding your life with me in a different place
[Chorus]
'Cause it still breaks me thinking
That it will never be the same again
In the end, this is what we wanted
And I can't shake the feeling
That I might never see your face again
In the end, this is what we wanted
And we're on to better things
But I hope that you still think of me
[Verse 2]
And now it's February
And I've been reminiscing
About fried Oreos in wintertime
Are you moving on?
[Pre-Chorus]
Without me by your side, does it ever feel strange?
Have you been doing fine, have you even felt a change?
Rebuilding your life with me in a different place
[Chorus]
'Cause it still breaks me thinking
That it will never be the same again
In the end (The end), this is what we wanted
And I can't shake the feeling
That I might never see your face again (Face again)
In the end (In the end), this is what we wanted
And we're on to better things
But I hope that you still think of me
[Bridge]
Without me by your side, does it ever feel strange?
Have you been doing fine, have you even felt a change?
Rebuilding your life with me in a different place
[Outro]
And we're on to better things
But I hope that you still think of me
