Is this okay for me to do?
I know there's no stopping you
We both went to hell and back
It about near gave me a heart attack

Years and years to gain that trust
Pain wasn't the heart of us
But there was a time I launched my bow
Shot up straight and let you go

Sometimes I pretend this isn't who I am
I throw caution to the wind
And don't give a damn
But I can't get away

You make me laugh so hard I cry
Tennis shoes in a London sky
You move on while I stand still
Need you and I always will

Sometimes I pretend this isn't who I am
I throw caution to the wind
And don't give a damn
But I can't get away
I know you've been there my sweet Rae

Nobody gets it like you do, Rae
Nobody gets it like you do, Rae
I put so much on you, Rae
'Cause nobody gets it like you do

I know I have a grip on ya
Remember Santa Monica
You had those boys right in your palm
Mirrored eyes and I was calm

Saw your wild spirit soar
Remembered where we'd been before
Sometimes I'm so unprepared
In Venice I was light as air

Sometimes I pretend this isn't who I am
I throw caution to the wind
And don't give a damn
But I can't get away
I know you've been there my sweet Rae
