## Lyrics

**[Intro]**

La la la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la (Whoo)

La la la la la la la la (Whoo)

La la la la la la la la

**[Verse 1]**

I wanna know about letting go

Cutting all ties could be beautiful, babe

Know you told me you'd never call

It pisses me off how you never call (Never called)

**[Pre-Chorus]**

Whoo, and I'll keep selling all my problems

And she'll be the one who buys them

Whoo, all of her love became an album

And I'm still the one who's crying

**[Chorus]**

And it sucks that I think about her

'Cause thinking 'bout her leaves me lonely (Leaves me lonely, leaves me lonely)

And it's not that I wanna suffer

But thinking of her keeps me going (Keeps me going, keeps me going)

**[Post-Chorus]**

Whoo, la la la la la la la la

Whoo, la la la la la la la la

Whoo, la la la la la la la la

Whoo, la la la la la la la la

**[Verse 2]**

And I wanna know what she thinks of me

Nothing I do is done quietly, babe

People change when you break their heart

Everything changed when she broke my heart (She broke my heart)

**[Pre-Chorus]**

Whoo, and I'll keep selling all my problems

And she'll be the one who buys them

Whoo, all of her love became an album

And I'm still the one who's crying

**[Chorus]**

And it sucks that I think about her

'Cause thinking 'bout her leaves me lonely (Leaves me lonely, leaves me lonely)

And it's not that I wanna suffer

But thinking of her keeps me going (Keeps me going, keeps me going)

**[Post-Chorus]**

Whoo, la la la la la la la la

Whoo, la la la la la la la la

Whoo, la la la la la la la la

Whoo, la la la la la la la la

**[Bridge]**

Who she was when she was my girl

Who she was when she was my girl

Who she was when she was my girl

Who she was when she was my girl

**[Chorus]**

And it sucks that I think about her

'Cause thinking 'bout her leaves me lonely (Leaves me lonely, leaves me lonely)

And it's not that I wanna suffer

But thinking of her keeps me going (Keeps me going, keeps me going)

**[Post-Chorus]**

Whoo, la la la la la la la la (When she was my girl)

Whoo, la la la la la la la la (When she was my girl)

Whoo, la la la la la la la la (When she was my girl)

Whoo, la la la la la la la la (When she was my girl)
