[Verse 1]
My friends were so suspicious
Something 'bout your name
Way too many selfies where your expression is the same
I said, "Calm down, you never met her
Could you open up your mind?"
Cause I was already being left behind

[Verse 2]
Well I kissed you after midnight, lying on the floor
And the summer by the fireplace when the tour was over
And I swore I read your mind
But I must have missed the line
Where I was already being left behind

[Chorus]
Was there something in the way?
Was there something in the way?
Like a word or a name, an ever-growing space
Was there something in the way?

[Verse 3]
Well you bought that gold engagement ring
In the window of the store
Thinking even when you find him
He'll still understand you more
Well don't you settle for the lesser
But if the lesser never ends
You won't be leaving me behind again
[Chorus]
Was there something in the way?
Was there something in the way?
Like a word or a name, an ever-growing space
Was there something in the way?

[Outro]
Was there something in the way?
Was there something in the way?
Was there something in the way?
Was there something in the way?
Was there something in the way?
Was there something in the way?
Was there something in the way?
Was there something in the way?
