How Not To Lyrics

I can honestly understand why it's over
I can go through the motions of walking away
I can give you the key and take my things back
I can find plenty things to fill my days

But I don't know how not to think about you
When it's late at night and quiet
And I know that I ought to be the one who is strong and just moves on
But I'll probably turn down your road
Knock-knock on your door
Fall back in your arms, wake up in the morning
Hating myself and the way that I can't help the way I still want you
I just don't know how not to, how not to, how not to
I just don't know how not to, how not to, how not to

You're like second nature, baby, you're just like breathing
Melody that you hear and you can't forget
And time goes by and I still need you
Yeah, you're worth the heartbreak and the regret

But I don't know how not to think about you
When it's late at night and quiet
And I know that I ought to be the one who is strong and just moves on
But I'll probably turn down your road
Knock-knock on your door
Fall back in your arms, wake up in the morning
Hating myself and the way that I can't help the way I still want you
I just don't know how not to, how not to, how not to
I just don't know how not to, how not to, how not to

I don't know how not to think about you
When it's late at night and quiet
And I know that I ought to be the one who is strong and just moves on
But I'll probably turn down your road
Knock-knock on your door
Fall back in your arms, wake up in the morning
Hating myself and the way that I can't help the way I still want you
I just don't know how not to, how not to, how not to
I just don't know how not to, how not to, how not to

Mmmm
Oh-oh-oh-oh

What is the Meaning of How Not To?

Navigating the aftermath of a breakup, this song delves into the struggle of moving on from a past relationship. The lyrics capture the internal conflict between knowing it's time to let go and being unable to resist returning to a former lover. Despite understanding why the relationship ended, the protagonist admits to repeatedly succumbing to old habits and emotional dependencies. The song poignantly illustrates how deeply ingrained love can be, likening it to second nature or an unforgettable melody. This internal battle highlights the difficulty in disentangling oneself from someone who remains a significant part of their life. #Heartbreak #EmotionalStruggle
