I was okay with giving you space
'til you really needed
Now I have to try and think of
my life without you in it
I know that you said that
nothing would change
but how can I trust you?
Based on my past, love doesn't last,
so why would it with you?
So if you're really leaving, let me know
You can pack all of your things and go
But you can't take Bon Iver, my long brown hair
August stars and northeast air
Or anything I learned to love with you
Like the way the stormy New York City nights
Were always ours but now they're mine
'Cause if I have to live with losing you
I'm not gonna lose me too
Oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh
I'm not gonna lose me too
Oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh
It took seven years for us to get here,
and now we're in danger
I always thought that you'd be the one
who'd give me forever
I'm still gonna keep the good parts for me
if I can't have you
I'm not gonna beg somebody to stay
if they don't want to
So if you're really leaving, let me know
You can pack all of your things and go
But you can't take Bon Iver, my long brown hair
August stars and northeast air
Or anything I learned to love with you
Like the way the stormy New York City nights
Were always ours but now they're mine
'Cause if I have to live with losing you
I'm not gonna lose me too
Oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh
I'm not gonna lose me too
Oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh
'Cause I'm good on my own
So pack your bags and go
I'm good on my own
So pack your bags and go
But you can't take Bon Iver
My long brown hair
August stars and northeast air
Or anything I learned to love with you
'Cause I'm not gonna lose me too
