You’re on your side
Of the southside of town
And I’m here on mine
Tryna keep a little lonely away
Independently we watchin’
The same sun go down
But it doesn’t have to be that way
We said the last time was the last time
And if we were in our right minds
It’s probably how things should stay
But I got half a bottle left
And no one to drink it with
And it doesn’t have to be that way
Baby you and me gotta whole lotta heart broke history
And it is what it is but it ain’t the way it’s gotta be
We could waste time makin’ our minds
Go back and forth till midnight
Or you could be just on your way
Oh yeah, cause this beds feelin’ empty
And I miss you and you miss me
And it doesn’t have to be that way
Awh, no it don’t
Ohhhh, Ohh
Awh baby you and me gotta whole lotta heart broke history
And it is what it is but it ain’t the way it’s gotta be
You’re on your side
Of the southside
Said you’ll be here in no time
One more time for old times sake
We can make up, we can make love
You can leave right when you wake up
But it doesn’t have to be that way
Oh, the crazy thing about us
Is we try to live without us
But it doesn’t have to be that way
