[Verse 1]

You could bring me back to life but you won’t lie

2 a.m. pessimism, no sigh

I'd listen on the phone to your whole life

And I don’t, I don’t know why

So I asked you to come to a ceremony

Can’t celebrate a love when I got nobody

You said I’d only go to feel something real

And you won’t, you won’t ask why

[Pre-Chorus]

What we had was lovely (What we had was lovely)

What we had was lovely (What we had was lovely)

What we had was lovely (What we had was lovely)

What we had was lovely

[Chorus]

I asked you to love me

And that’s not something that we’re meant to ask

Yeah what we had was lovely

So I guess I’m wondering what that means

[Verse 2]

As fickle as a foe turned family

Fuckin’ with my friends and what they think of me

But now I know I needed that ridicule

‘Cause I’ve been I’ve been a damn fool

Your real and it hurts ‘cause I’m soaked and I'm sorry

I’ve been bathing in the shallow end of my identity

But you got me to get hold of myself

And think a little deeper now

And I still don’t, I don’t know how

[Pre-Chorus]

What we had was lovely (What we had was lovely)

What we had was lovely (What we had was lovely)

What we had was lovely (What we had was lovely)

What we had was lovely

[Chorus]

I asked you to love me

And that’s not something that we’re meant to ask

Yeah what we had was lovely

So I guess I’m wondering what that means

[Bridge]

I guess I was just feeling selfish

I didn’t mean to make it seem like I was helpless

It took a little more than a slammed door to end this properly

[Pre-Chorus]

What we had was lovely (What we had was lovely)

What we had was lovely (What we had was lovely)

What we had was lovely (What we had was lovely)

What we had was lovely…

[Chorus]

I asked you to love me

And that’s not something that we’re meant to ask

Yeah what we had was lovely

So I guess I’m wondering what that means

[Outro]

What we had was lovely (What we had was lovely)

What we had was lovely (What we had was lovely)

I asked you to love me (I asked you to love me)

What we had was lovely (What we had was lovely)
