wish i didnt press send

Gabrielle Aplin

I was walking round my hometown thinkin bout you
Thinkin bout how no one s ever hurt me
Like you did back then
It was fun to forget
Now I m sleeping through the memories every bad night
Every last fight, trying to remind myself I don t regret
That you re outta my head

But it s late, I m awake, and I ve broken my rule
I swear it was that drink
That had me messaging you
I ve gone and done the thing I said I wouldn t do
Well, I shouldn t have said it
Cause I never meant it

I wish I didn t press send
I m never going back again
I only did it cause I m overthinking
Lonely, drunk at 3 a. m
You should have left it on read
I really meant what I said
When I was sober and I told you
I was happy that it came to an end
Oh, I wish I didn t press send

Oh-oh-oh, I wish I didn t press send
Oh-oh-oh

Now I m sitting in my old room
In the same way that we used to
Thinking bout the day you left for the last time
You never said goodbye

But now it s late, I m awake
And I ve broken my rule (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
I swear it was that drink
That had me messaging you (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
I ve gone and done the thing
I said I wouldn t do (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Well, I shouldn t have said it
Cause I never meant it

I wish I didn t press send
I m never going back again
I only did it cause I m overthinking
Lonely, drunk at 3 a. m
You should have left it on read
I really meant what I said
When I was sober and I told you
I was happy that it came to an end
Oh, I wish I didn t press send

Oh-oh-oh, I wish I didn t press send
Oh-oh-oh, I wish I didn t, wish I didn t, I
Oh-oh-oh, I wish I didn t, wish I didn t, I
I wish I didn t, wish I didn t, I
Oh-oh-oh, I-I-I

I wish I didn t press send
We re never going back again
I only did it cause I m overthinking
Lonely, drunk at 3 a. m
