Lyrics to Roundabouts

Did you take a wrong turn to pass me by?

Did you mean to walk past and catch my eye?

Because you were acting kinda shy



Then I took a chance and asked you out

For a month we circled roundabouts

I was falling faster than the speed of light

So last night when I saw you out

In another man's arms

It cut like a knife



Now I'm standing here alone

On the street where we first met

I'm falling deeper trying to get you out of my head

Staring at my phone, hoping some day you'll call it

I only knew I loved you when I watched you go



Looking back, I wonder did I try

Try enough or was I petrified

To say what was running through my mind ?

It ain't easy acting like I'm fine

Yeah, it tears me up, he's holding you tonight

Did I let you pass me by?



Cause that night when I saw you out in another man's arms

It cut like a knife



Now I'm standing here alone

On the street where we first met

I'm falling deeper trying to get you out of my head

Staring at my phone, hoping some day you'll call it

I only knew I loved you when I watched you go

I only knew I loved you when I watched you go



Wasn't easy acting like I was fine

For a year it tore me up inside

But I still think of you sometimes



Now I'm standing here alone

On the street where we first met

I'm falling deeper trying to get you out of my head

Staring at my phone, hoping some day you'll call it

I only knew I loved you when I watched you go



I'm standing here alone

On the street where we first met

I'm falling deeper trying to get you out of my head

Staring at my phone, hoping some day you'll call it

I only knew I loved you when I watched you go



I only knew I loved you when I watched you go
