I Wasn't Gonna Write This

i wasn't gonna write this

I had nothing much to say

You just happened to be standing there

And looking at me that way

Now I know what you ordered

I know the street you take home

I know that's a little concerning

But I swear I didn't mean to know

Pre-Chorus

I don't usually do this

I don't usually care

But you said my name once

And it's been stuck in my head

Chorus

I wasn't gonna write this

I wasn't even thinking 'bout you

But every little line I had

Keeps finding its way back to you

I wasn't gonna make this

Some stupid little love song

But here I am at midnight

Trying to figure out where I went wrong

I wasn't gonna write this

But apparently I had to

Verse 2

Now I'm taking the long way

Just in case you're around

And checking my reflection

Every time I'm downtown

I don't know what you're doing

I don't know where you've been

But somehow one "hey" from you

Can ruin my ability to think

Pre-Chorus

This is getting stupid

I'm making it obvious

You smiled at me for five seconds

I've been thinking about it since

Chorus

I wasn't gonna write this

Now I've got your name in every verse

I said I wouldn't make it obvious

I'm only making it worse

I wasn't gonna call you

I wasn't gonna check my phone

I wasn't gonna wonder

If you're somewhere out there alone

I wasn't gonna write this

Now look at what you made me do

Post-Chorus

Oh great

Now I'm smiling at my screen

Oh great

Now you're ruining everything

Bridge

I could've written about anything

A city a summer a midnight drive

Could've made myself look cooler

Could've kept my dignity alive

But no

I had to write about your stupid smile

The way you say my name

The way I suddenly forget

Why I ever wanted to play it safe

So congratulations

I hate to give you credit

You got a whole song out of me

Final Chorus

I wasn't gonna write this

Now everybody knows it's you

I've got your name between the lines

And nothing left to prove

I wasn't gonna call it love

That would've been insane

But if this isn't something

Tell me why I wrote your name

I wasn't gonna write this

I wasn't gonna want you this bad

I wasn't gonna spend my whole night

Turning nothing into something we have

I wasn't gonna write this

Yeah I know that's obviously untrue

I wasn't gonna write this

I just really wanted to

Outro

Yeah I just really wanted to

Don't make it a thing

Too late
