Thinkin' Bout My Ex Lyrics

When I first met you

 I swear that I was straight with you

 I wasn't looking for nobody new

 I just needed someone to talk to

 You said you were cool and understood

 But now you caught feelings like I knew you would

 And you sitting there with a broken heart

 Cause I have you my body and not my heart

 

 [Chorus]

 When I'm holding you late at night

 I'm thinkin' bout my ex

 When I'm kissing you and look at you

 I'm thinkin' bout my ex

 And I'm sorry I didn't mean to hurt you

 And I know sorry doesn't mend your broken heart

 

 [Verse 2]

 Baby I have to be

 Unselfish and true to me

 Cause I'm not where I really want to be

 And It's nothing with you

 It's all me

 I toss and turn all night when I sleep

 Want and reaching for someone who use to be

 Said it must be some karma thing

 Cause I can't seem to let go and love again

 

 [Chorus 2]

 When I lay with you I close my eyes

 I'm thinkin' 'bout my ex

 When I'm touching you gently

 I'm thinkin' 'bout my ex

 And I'm sorry I didn't mean to hurt you

 And I know sorry doesn't mend your broken heart

 When I'm listing to music I'm thinking' 'bout my ex

 In a bubble bath with the candles lit

 I'm thinking 'bout my ex

 And I'm sorry I didn't mean to hurt you

 And I know sorry doesn't mend your broken heart

 

 [Bridge]

 

 You're beautiful

 I don't wanna take the space from someone else

 So let me go

 And do a little soul searchin' for myself

 I'm so sorry that

 I pulled you in and let it get this far

 You know I never meant to break your heart

 

 [Chorus 3]

 At the shopping mall or movies

 I'm thinkin' 'bout my ex

 At the restaurant while I'm eating

 I'm thinkin' 'bout my ex

 And I'm sorry I didn't mean to hurt you

 And I know sorry doesn't mend your broken heart

 While you talk to me I drift away

 I'm thinkin' 'bout my ex

 When you ask me what I'm thinkin'

 I'm thinkin' 'bout my ex

 And I'm sorry I didn't mean to hurt you

 And I know sorry doesn't mend your broken heart

 

 [Repeat till fade]

 

 You know it's not who you think it is
