We Were Never Just Fine

Verse

Packing boxes on a Tuesday floor

Your handwriting still on the kitchen door

Two coffee cups, only one gets washed

Six years of noise going quiet and lost

I keep the key you never asked me for

Silver proof we were something more

Pre-Chorus

So how do we walk out this door

And still feel lucky to the core?

Tell me how a heart can break

And grin like it's the best mistake

Chorus

We were never just fine

Never a straight line

We were storms and gold confetti

Falling all the time

So I'll wave from the platform

Warm instead of torn

'Cause we were never just fine

We were so much more

Verse

Your sister's calling, asking am I good

I laugh and say I finally think I could

The apartment's empty but the windows glow

Like something wants to let this old thing go

I'm folding up the map we never used

Turns out the ending was the point, not the bruise

Pre-Chorus

So how do we walk out this door

And still feel lucky to the core?

Tell me how a heart can break

And grin like it's the best mistake

Chorus

We were never just fine

Never a straight line

We were storms and gold confetti

Falling all the time

So I'll wave from the platform

Warm instead of torn

'Cause we were never just fine

We were so much more

Bridge

Maybe love's not built to stay

It's built to teach you how to weigh

The gold against the goodbye's ache

And still walk forward, wide awake

I'm not scared of the quiet road

I carry all we were, I'm not letting go

Of the way you made this whole life bright

Before you turned into the light

Chorus

We were never just fine

Never a straight line

We were storms and gold confetti

Falling all the time

So I'll wave from the platform

Warm instead of torn

'Cause we were never just fine

We were so much more

We were never just fine

We were so much more
