Aileen Lyrics

Why does it hurt?

Why does it feel like we’re back to being strangers?

Letting you go was the right choice, or so I really thought

But I can’t deny I should’ve kissed you longer

I can’t deny sometimes I’d like to hold you once again

I can’t deny leaving was my decision

But I can’t deny I wish there was somebody else to blame

Oh how the tables have turned

I used to be the one to say we wouldn’t work

Now I’m the one to look back wishing that we were

Still like we were before, but I see you’re moving on

I can’t deny I should’ve kissed you longer

I can’t deny sometimes I’d like to hold you once again

I can’t deny leaving was my decision

But I can’t deny I wish there was somebody else to blame

I wonder if you show her all the songs you said reminded you of me

Say the same words, sing the same melodies

But now instead of my name you’ve addressed your songs to beautiful Aileen

Why does it hurt?

Seeing you’re happy now, when you’re holding her

I can’t deny, I should’ve kissed you longer

I can’t deny
