Tough Luck - Nina Nesbitt

She puts her pen to paper

Lines across their hearts

You did it all to raise her

You left her standing in the dark

This time she’s praying for silence

Hoping that you would understand

That she’s just building these roadworks

So that it’s clearer when it’ll end

You can’t still own what you let go

What don’t you understand?

Tough luck, I said I’d be here in a month but you waited two

Only coming back 'round cause you heard I was with someone new

And I was waiting here 'til you came back

My heart was bleeding love

It’s tough love I’m giving you, it’s tough luck on you

He asked a question, she answers

He made a crossword spelling guilt

Empty boxes filled with chances

But you just can’t leave the rose to wilt

You can’t still own what you let go

What don’t you understand?

Tough luck, I said I’d be here in a month but you waited two

Only coming back 'round cause you heard I was with someone new

And I was waiting here 'til you came back

My heart was bleeding love

It’s tough love I’m giving you, yeah it’s tough luck on you

Tough luck, I said I’d be here in a month but you waited two

Only coming back 'round cause you heard I was with someone new

And I was waiting here 'til you came back

My heart was bleeding love

It’s tough love that I’m giving you, yeah it’s tough luck on you
