Didn’t watch your ex’s set
I just left and thought about you;
Like when your teeth graze those lips
When you begin to smile
Later, you took my hand
You lead us to the doorway
But you let go of me
Once you saw all your friends
And I’ve known you forever
At least that’s what I tell Jake
When I’m too drunk to walk home
When your brother is away
You suggested I write a song about the first time we met
But I can’t seem to remember where or when
Couldn’t watch your ex’s set
Instead I wrote this song about you
Thought, «would you show your kids, if you found the time was right?»
You’d tell them where and when
You never thought I’d leave the east coast
We were young and full of sin
And I too dumb to understand
Yet I’ve loved you forever
At least that’s what I tell Holt
When I’m too drunk to lie, too drugged to be alone
You suggested I write a song about the first time we met
Well I don’t wanna remember there or then
So, is this the hook you wanted?
Is it stuck inside your head?
Can you sing it with your friends, or alone?
So, am I what you needed?
Say you love me to my face
Grin and gossip, walk away and then go…
So is this the hook you wanted?
To sing about me to my friends?
Well you’re just stuck inside your head, all alone
You were all I needed
Said I loved you to your face
But you just laughed and walked away
