She Aint You

Songwriter: Jessie Hall Lyrics: [Verse 1] She laughs at all my bad jokes Knows my body by heart She remembers my birthday But she don’t know my scars She holds my hand in traffic Sings along out of tune Every little thing is perfect But the room still feels like you ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] I keep trying to fall the right way Every time I do I fall back To your name on my screen Your shoes by the door Like I’m right back where we were ⸻ [Chorus] There’s nothing wrong with her But she ain’t you She’s saying all the words But they don’t sound like you She’s got a steady heart But it don’t hit me the same There’s nothing wrong with her But she ain’t you ⸻ [Verse 2] She asks about my childhood Hangs on every small truth But I leave out the stories Where the punchline ends in you She wears my old Jean jacket Says it makes her feel safe But your memory’s woven In the threads she can’t replace ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] So I’m dancing around the question Why my smile fades in her arms Tracing every promise Like a map back to where you are ⸻ [Chorus] There’s nothing wrong with her But she ain’t you She’s saying all the words But they don’t sound like you She’s got a steady heart But it don’t hit me the same There’s nothing wrong with her But she ain’t you ⸻ [Bridge] I’m not praying you’ll come running I’m just stuck in the truth Do I lay here beside her Or walk out and lose you both ⸻ [Final Chorus] There’s nothing wrong with her But she ain’t you And every time I try It cuts in two She deserves a love That’s honest, clear, and true There’s nothing wrong with her I’m just still hung up on you There’s nothing wrong with her But she ain’t you
