Few Weeks Later

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You left my last name on your hoodie sleeve Then you found new eyes before I could breathe I saw the photos in a stranger’s glow Your hand on her waist like you never know [Pre-Chorus] And I keep saying you did not break rules You were always honest that’s the cruel part too [Chorus] A few weeks later you were gone from me A few weeks later she was where I used to be You’re not a cheater I know that’s true But you still feel like you chose too soon [Verse 2] I replay that Thursday your thumb on my chin You said “we’re okay” and then you vanished in No slammed doors no busted trust Just a quiet exit that cut me up [Pre-Chorus] And I keep saying you did not lie But you left my heart for a softer light [Chorus] A few weeks later you were gone from me A few weeks later she was where I used to be You’re not a cheater I know that’s true But you still feel like you chose too soon [Bridge] I can forgive the clean way you walked away That doesn’t mean it doesn’t sting today You wore the truth like a polished ring Still I hear your name and it burns like a thing [Final Chorus] A few weeks later you were gone from me A few weeks later she was where I used to be You’re not a cheater I know that’s true But you still feel like you chose too soon A few weeks later I was left to heal A few weeks later and it still don’t feel real You’re not a cheater I know that’s true But my heart still calls you a traitor too
