The Other Me

[Verse 1]

I guess we can still be friends

I guess we can talk at least

But if we were seventeen

Imagine the things we'd do

I know that those days are over

I'm glad that those games are won

The winners ride off into the sunset

But it's not the same for you

[Pre-Chorus]

And I don't wanna play

Those nasty games that adults play

But I can't let you go

And I can't see another way

[Chorus]

And I know that she's the only one for me

And you know that if I could split in two

The other me—would stay all night

The other me—would hold you tight

The other me—would be the only one for you

[Verse 2]

When I see you there alone

It almost breaks my heart

But it doesn't break enough

For me to break my whole life apart

I guess we could still be friends

And we can talk all night

But I have to bite my tongue

And sometimes words don't come out right

[Pre-Chorus]

We're old enough to know

What we can think or say out loud

To know that hearts are not just

Cards to play when two's a crowd

[Chorus]

And I know that she's the only one for me

And you know that if I could split in two

The other me—would stay all night

The other me—would hold you tight

The other me—would be the only one for you

[Bridge]

The other me

Would take you so far away from here

And he'd be

A man with a mission

The other me

Might even be better than this one

[Chorus]

Whoa, I know that she's the only one for me

And you know that if I could split in two

The other me—would stay all night

The other me—would hold you tight

The other me—would be the only one for you
