I thought I'd add a song to your playlist today
There's a New York indie band who just moved out to L.A.
And I think you'd like their lyrics even though they're a bit cliche
I wonder what you're listening to these days
I've been listening to my own sad love songs on repeat
Trying to forget your voice's simple melody
And I had to delete every song that reminded me of your name
I don't listen to Fiona Apple since you went away
And I hope that you don't mind if I start to reminisce
'Bout the night that I got drunk and made you listen to Taylor Swift
And you made me stop my dancing so you could pull me in for a kiss
You stole the words right out of my lips
Now I'm singing gibberish 'cause I just can't find the words
I strum the strings on my guitar 'til all my fingers hurt
And I'll write a million lyrics but they all just feel the same
And I'll listen to some pop songs just to get me through the day
And I threw away every momento and the mixtape that you made
I don't listen to Fiona Apple since you went away
