haven’t had the guts to walk outside
nothings really wrong but then maybe it is
always saying that i’ll give it time
but then i get impatient
i swear, i swear - i need this
haven’t really spent much time alone
i drive across the bridge to pay the toll
everytime i do i feel at home
but then i feel embarrased
i swear, i swear - i need you
haven’t really felt myself at all
nothings really wrong but then maybe it is
take another right before you come
and then i feel indifferent
i swear, i swear - i need this
haven’t really had a lot of time
whenever you see me next maybe i will
when every other word feels like a lie
i say i love myself today
i swear, i swear - i need this

i’m awake while you’re still sleeping
i am stirring in the kitchen
i will make you cups of coffee
loudly, ’til I can’t no more
i come home, you’re rearranging
moving things, it makes you happy
then you always go and ask me
what is different? i don’t know
1-10 so that you say more
when i ask you how your day was
sometimes i just feel like talking
sometimes you just want to lay
by the time that i will tell you
you are what i want in my life
we will have to start all over
one day you will be my wife
if I could i’d tell you now
i sure bet you’d like to know
when it’s right, i’ll say it out loud
i know I’ve been slow
accumulate the things we’ve wanted
at the party you are talking
choose the neighborhood to walk in
pick out houses that we like
made your mind up, all or nothing
i just smile when you change it up
i just want to tell you something
i love you the way you are
if I could i’d tell you now
i will in a year or so
i don’t want to ever scare you
i just want you to know

you left me a message, i call you from the car
it’s 4 days later, i ask you where you are
you’re staying by the freeway, in town for 2 more days
you say you miss your family, i don’t know what to say
we don’t always remember the last time that we spoke
so we end up repeating what we already know
“I miss you like a brother” - you tell me late that night
you say you always wondered what things may have been like
if I would have left you the same way I did back then
i would not forget you, only the things you did
cause c’mon, who’s kidding? we were only kids
“you’re my only friend”
you say that it’s important, you tell me that your scared
things happen for a reason, but it’s not always fair
i wish that you could see us when we were just 15
there’s something I would tell you - “i don’t know what you mean”
you’re scrolling through the pictures, you say she just turned 10
there’s one where I am with her, it’s all the way back then
i can’t wait to meet him when I see you again
so much for a friend

watch me get down this time
watch me get down this time
part of me called it right
watch me change up my mind
i don't want that
neither do i
watch me get down
watch me this time
watch me give up this time
watch me give up this time
part of me got it right
watch me make up my mind
i just forget
everytime
watch me give up
watch me get by
