Official Lyric Video for "What Was" by Benson Boone

Lyrics:

Young 

Standing on the edge of 21 

Staring at the man that I become sometimes 

When I lose my control 

  

He’s dumb 

If you blink he’ll blow up like a gun 

Jumping to conclusions just for fun 

That guy needs somebody to hold 

  

Needs somebody he knows 

Where the hell did she go 

It kinda makes me feel like 

  

I wish I could change my name 

I wish I could start again 

Fly me to a lonely place 

Where you never see my face 

So you never feel the pain of 

What was 

When you’re standing in the rain 

Calling out my name 

Nothing’s gonna change what was 

  

Cold 

Driving through my neighborhood alone 

Going passed the house but I’m not home this time 

I haven’t been in a while 

Haven’t been ‘cause I’m far away 

In another state 

Miles away from us 

As you try to fan 

A dying flame 

While ashes turn to dust 

  

I wish I could change my name 

I wish I could start again 

Fly me to a lonely place 

Where you never see my face 

So you never feel the pain of 

What was 

When you’re standing in the rain 

Calling out my name 

Nothing’s gonna change what was 

  

Let me 

Start over 

The moment that I left you in tears  

Is a memory that will haunt me for years and years and years and years and years 

  

Oh it still does 

Oh it still does 

What was 

You need somebody to hold 

Where the hell did I go?
