Here are the lyrics for Morgan Wallen's "Been By Now" ¹²:

No need to act surprised

I've seen it in your eyes

I feel it when we lie here worlds apart

It's easier to stay

It's easier to say

That there's gon' come a day it won't be this hard

Nah, we don't even fight like we used to

We don't even care 'nough to cry no more

It's been a hundred nights since we even tried to

Get back to the way we were before

I guess we should've been by now

Should've been out by now

Should've been over it, over us

Should've been somewhere else, someone else

Should've been strong enough, grown enough

To walk away, but we're still stuck somehow

Guess we should've been by now

Used to be your touch

Used to be enough

To fix whatever mess we made

Now it's just a brush

Of your fingertips

And I don't feel a thing, ain't that a shame?

Nah, we don't even talk like we used to

We don't even try 'nough to lie no more

It's been a hundred nights since we even tried to

Get back to the way we were before

I guess we should've been by now

Should've been out by now

Should've been over it, over us

Should've been somewhere else, someone else

Should've been strong enough, grown enough

To walk away, but we're still stuck somehow

Guess we should've been by now

Yeah, we should've been by now

Should've been out by now

Should've been over it, over us

Should've been somewhere else, someone else

Should've been strong enough, grown enough

To walk away, but we're still stuck somehow

Guess we should've been by now
