You Don’t Get To Have Me Now

Verse 1

Came in with a heart you could borrow

Left with no plans for tomorrow

You had me chasing every word you said

Now I'm dancing on the edge instead

(Yeah, yeah)

Can't even look me in my face

Your memory can't keep up the pace

I was yours, but I changed my mind

Tonight I'm leaving you behind

Pre-Chorus

You should've known better, playing with fire

Now I'm climbing higher, higher, higher

Say my name, but I won't turn around

Your little kingdom's coming down

(Oh, no, no)

Chorus

You lost me, now you're watching my show

Thought I'd break, but I'm letting you go

All that damage turned to gold somehow

You don't get to have me now

I'm done with the tears, done with the doubt

Turn the music up, drown you out

You had your chance, but it's over somehow

You don't get to have me now

(No, no, no — not now)

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, I'm out of your reach

Na-na, you can't get to me

Oh-oh, look at me now

I'm dancing while you're breaking down

(Oh, oh, oh)

You don't get to have me now

Bridge

Maybe I was too young to see

You were taking more than you gave to me

But every scar became a warning sign

And every goodbye gave me back my life

So here's to the girl you couldn't keep

She's wide awake, she's losing sleep

Not over you — she's dreaming big

(Yeah!)

And you ain't part of it

Final Chorus

You lost me, now you're watching my show

Thought I'd break, but I'm letting you go

All that damage turned to gold somehow

You don't get to have me now

I'm done with the tears, done with the doubt

Turn the music up, drown you out

You had your chance, but it's over somehow

You don't get to have me now

(No, no, no)

You lost me, now you're watching my show

Look at me — I'm somebody you don't know

All that pain made me stronger somehow

You don't get to have me now

(Oh-oh, yeah, yeah)

You don't get to have me now

(No, no, no — I'm gone)
