I Know It Happened But I Can't Explain Lyrics

Screwed up t-shirt, at the foot of the bed on the floor

Messy left bed clothes, like I had to be somewhere

Somewhere that's not here, I don't care to stay here

Here is where we were, now we won't be anymore

And the train came, and took you away

Maybe it was a car came and took you away

Or the rain came or maybe the season just changed

Either way,

I know it happened but I can explain

Piles of receipts, and gifts, and things that we both shared

I can't face thinking about it, come and get them when you can bear

Everywhere that you look here, there's another happy time of us here

Happy like, ‘how it ever not be?’ but here we are, not there

And the train came, and took you away

Maybe it was a car came and took you away

Or the rain came or maybe the season just changed

Either way,

I know it happened but I can explain

I'll tell you a secret

I like being good at things

And I can't decide if I feel so defeated

Because I wasn't very good at this

Or if I really really liked you

And I won't see you again

I know it happened but I can't explain

Press rewind for me would you

I want to listen again

Feel the goosebumps on my back and my neck

And my arms and legs

I know it happened but I can't explain

I know it happened but I can't explain
