Was (Not Was - I Get It Now Lyrics

We said goodbye on the stairs
So much left up in the air
I never could understand what you're thinking

Guess I'm a little too harsh
Leaving with you in the dark
When I was always your whole existence
How am I supposed to heal?
Give me a second to feel something

I think I get it now
You're always grabbing hold of me
So I put my bags back on the floor
I think I get it now
I never could tell if you were malicious or you're just insecure
You're calling me ten thousand times a minute
Just to hear my voice didn't know what for
But I think I get it
I always thought I needed you
But you're really needing me more

I guess I couldn't relate
Thought I had all of your weight
Didn't know it was stuck on your shoulders

I'm tired of deflecting
But I'm scared of affection
Maybe I'll understand when I'm older
How am I supposed to heal?
Give me a second to feel something

I think I get it now
You're always grabbing hold of me
So I put my bags back on the floor
I think I get it now
I never could tell if you were malicious or you're just insecure
You're calling me ten thousand times a minute
Just to hear my voice didn't know what for
But I think I get it
I always thought I needed you
But you're really needing me more

I'm sorry for dancing around
Cnd letting you down
But I'm getting it now

I'm ready to hold all your words
Even though it'll hurt, somehow
I think I get it now
You're always grabbing hold of me
So I put my bags back on the floor
I think I get it now
I never could tell if you were malicious or you're just insecure
You're calling me ten thousand times a minute
Just to hear my voice didn't know what for
But I think I get it
I always thought I needed you
But you're really needing me more
