[Verse 1]
Last night I wrote a verse to a song
But I woke up this morning, it was gone
When I start to think about it
You and that verse are the same
You're both gone and damn it's a shame
Yeah, you're both gone and damn it's a shame

[Verse 2]
Today, there was a melody in my head
Turns out, it was your favorite song by The Dead
When I start to think about it
You and that melody are the same
You're both taken and damn it's a shame
Yeah, you're both taken and damn it's a shame

[Chorus]
Now you're out partying with strangers
And drinking clear liquor on the hood of a car
I should have known that I could never change you
You speak your mind and you follow your heart
Yeah, you speak your mind and you follow your heart

[Verse 3]
I wrote a chorus from some words you said
But I still heard your voice, so I let it go instead
When I start to think about it
You and that chorus are the same
I gave you both up and that's a shame
I let you both go and that's a shame
[Chorus]
Now you're out partying with strangers
And drinking clear liquor on the hood of a car
I should have known that I could never change you
You speak your mind and you follow your heart
Yeah, you speak your mind and you follow your heart

[Verse 4]
Tonight, I saw you out in the crowd
Under someone else's arm, you looked so proud
I didn't know the folks you were around
I decided not to wave, I just sat back down
I didn't even wave, I just sat back down

[Bridge]
Turned around, yeah you turned around
Yeah, you turned around

[Chorus]
'Cause now you're out partying with strangers
And drinking clear liquor on the hood of a car
I should have known that I could never change you
You speak your mind and you follow your heart

[Chorus]
Yeah, now you're out partying with strangers
And drinking clear liquor on the hood of a car
I should have known that I could never change you
You speak your mind and you follow your heart
Yeah, you speak your mind and you follow your heart
Yeah, you speak your mind and you follow your heart
Yeah, you follow your heart
