Stay Together Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You and I, we were never friends in the first place
Never knew what to get you on your birthday
And all the best nights ended in the worst way, way, yeah
Apologize if I always had to have the last word
Yeah, I was always bendin' over backwards
Just tryna crack your heart without a password, word

[Pre-Chorus]
And lookin' back at the evidence
All we did was fight and all we did was lie
So you and me

[Chorus]
Thank God we never stayed together
Bought a house, had a kid, got a dog together
Thank God we never said, "Forever"
You and me, we were never meant to stay together
Thank God we never stayed together
Bought a house, had a kid, got a dog together
Thank God we never said, "Forever"
You and me, we were never meant to stay together, yeah

[Verse 2]
Mm, I don't feel bad like I used to
I drink every night like I used to
I'm pretty sure that I found a new you
[Pre-Chorus]
And lookin' back at the evidence
All we did was fight and all we did was lie
So you and me

[Chorus]
Thank God we never stayed together
Bought a house, had a kid, got a dog together
Thank God we never said, "Forever"
You and me, we were never meant to stay together
Thank God we never stayed together
Bought a house, had a kid, got a dog together
Thank God we never said, "Forever"
You and me, we were never meant to stay together, yeah

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Answer

Stay Together’ is super poignant for me. It’s reflecting on younger love, when I didn’t really know what love was, and I had all these big plans.
