nobody had to lose

nobody had to lose lyrics

Verse 1

You said it was timing
I said it was fate
We kept on missing
The same old place

Your coat by the door
My keys in your hand
We loved like a match
That burned through sand

Pre-Chorus

And I tried to stay
I tried to be brave
But we kept on reaching
For the wrong last page

Chorus

Nobody had to lose
Nobody had to lose
If we let it go
Before it split in two

Nobody had to lose
Nobody had to lose
I still love you hard
But I let you choose

Verse 2

You blamed the distance
I blamed my mind
I read too much
In the smallest sign

That look at dinner
That pause on the phone
Tiny little aches
That grew bones

Pre-Chorus

And I tried to stay
I tried to be kind
But we kept on carrying
Two endings in one line

Chorus

Nobody had to lose
Nobody had to lose
If we let it go
Before it split in two

Nobody had to lose
Nobody had to lose
I still love you hard
But I let you choose

Bridge

Maybe we were real
Even then
Maybe love can break
And still not sin

I don’t call it failure
I don’t call it mean
We were just two hands
Letting go gently

Chorus

Nobody had to lose
Nobody had to lose
If we let it go
Before it split in two

Nobody had to lose
Nobody had to lose
I still love you hard
But I let you choose

Outro

If I say your name
Let it be soft
Nobody had to lose
We only got lost
