Best Thing We Did

Verse 1

Left the door wide open

Girl, you did not bother to turn back

Checked the mirror for a tear

But my face looked fine

Stared at the driveway until you pulled away

Pre-Chorus

No screaming matches this time

No sleeping on the sofa

No crying on the phone

Just a sudden breath of fresh air

Chorus

We were running on empty

We were tired of trying

Best thing we did was giving up

Best thing we did was giving up

I see you smiling in your car

I feel the weight drift off me

Best thing we did was giving up

Best thing we did was giving up

Verse 2

Hung my shirts in your spot

Where your dresses used to hang

Found a calm I never knew

Took a walk alone

Checked the box for moving on finally

Pre-Chorus

No heavy cloud in the hall

No walking on those eggshells

No faking for the friends

Just a quiet house for once

Chorus

We were running on empty

We were tired of trying

Best thing we did was giving up

Best thing we did was giving up

I see you smiling in your car

I feel the weight drift off me

Best thing we did was giving up

Best thing we did was giving up

Bridge

Thought the world would surely end

Turns out I just needed room

You needed your own space, girl

Now we both can start to live

Now we both can start to live

Chorus

We were running on empty

We were tired of trying

Best thing we did was giving up

Best thing we did was giving up

I see you smiling in your car

I feel the weight drift off me

Best thing we did was giving up

Best thing we did was giving up
