j.a.m.e.s. watts - the old you lyrics
[verse 1: james watts]
to whom it may concern, i hope this reaches you in good spirits
adulthood is now upon you, so why fear it?
its cause of you i find inspiration for my lyrics
your pain, i write it down, your anguish, i hear it
i’m always here, when n0body’s around to comfort you
the best friend you ever had, dude, look what i’ve done for you
when everyone went 9-5 when they were done was school
i knew to chase that dream would be the only thing to comfort you
so i went without the things, i knew that i deserved
while you was up late with these songs, i learned every word
your biggest fan, so that “number one supporter” prize
should go straight to me, cause part of my heart, it sorta died
now we here, trying to sort it all out together
feeling like i need to go, this can’t be us forever
the future ain’t a friend to me, i can’t trust it’s better
i just hope you get this letter…
[hook]
boy i think about it, every night and day
i’m addicted, want to jump inside your love
i really wouldn’t have it any other way
i’m addicted and i just can’t get enough…
[verse 2: james watts]
we was up, bright lights in the big city
the good times, are the things that i’ll take with me
but when the houselights raise, and the flashes dim
that’s when you see it all for what is, and you break quickly….right?
not us, you had to keep chasing
and that was never me, i worked hard to keep patient
and keep pace with this life that always keep changin’
feeling strange being yourself leads to deep aching…ouch…
and then life just flew right by us
we done met so many dreamers, and few survivors
they said sleep’s for the weak, and so you deprived us
so i’mma use this next few to just rest my eyes it’s…
the kind of break that’s been overdue
i might need one, i’m feeling like i’m over you
but if you wanna come home and do what you’re supposed to do
then kindly disregard this note here that i wrote for you…
[hook]
boy i think about it, every night and day
i’m addicted, want to jump inside your love
i really wouldn’t have it any other way
i’m addicted and i just can’t get enough…
[verse 3: james watts]
you love something then you know you gotta let it leave
you feeling suffocated? fine, i’mma let you breathe
because of my pride, this whole thing’s been one-sided
thinkin’ of myself, i ain’t provide the things you need
so listen up, you take whatever time, collect your thoughts
if i ain’t learn sh-t else, it’s “you gotta protect your heart”
and one day i hope that we could press “reset” to start
for now we’re on pause, i’ll let the screen just fade to dark
cuz i was childish, admittedly
i swore to god a million times that you’d be rid of me
earlier than you did, in fact
i just wanna get it back
a grown man needs a bigger chair, where i’m sitting at
is not really fitting, who i’m kidding?, i’m a kid and that’s
never gonna change, i guess the new james is sick of that
and though it might hurt, i told you
sincerely yours, whenever you want me, the old you..
