|
We started off by talking |
|
About the tattoos on her back |
|
And the bands that we both hate |
|
And anything to make the moment last |
|
Hoping you might spend a night |
|
To watch our feelings collide |
|
Seems like summer's just a state of mind |
|
I'm gunna make sure we never fall apart |
|
We're not trying hard enough |
|
So this can last forever |
|
Do you remember. . |
|
Crashing parties just to get our drinks for free |
|
You would touch your skirt and tell me you had nothing on underneath |
|
But all these memories |
|
Are turning me about |
|
You and i might never get this right |
|
(but we're gunna have to try) |
|
This promise was a fading dream |
|
Something to get myself to sleep |
|
One more night of silence next to. . you |
|
I'm gunna make sure we never fall apart |
|
You're not trying hard enough |
|
So this can last forever |
|
I'll give my best shot holding onto what we've got |
|
I need to tell her that i'm ready |
|
Whether she's ready or not |
|
Ready or not, or not |
|
Well are you ready or not? |
|
(are you ready or not, i'm ready, i'm ready) |
|
We tried, too hard for all the walls we built up |
|
We're fake, 'cause your slipping away |
|
Like a car on ice, we're spinning out of control |
|
Like an open wound, we need some time to heal |
|
Like a cigarette, her pleasure's worth the risk |
|
Like a crowded room, my presence won't be missed |
|
She don't care, and it's not fair |
|
That i can't forget you |
|
Just knowing i let you |
|
Out of my life, but i'm moving on |
|
Well, she's moving on |
|
So i'll be gone, i'll be a million miles away |
|
I need to see you, need to touch you |
|
Like we used to misbehave |
|
If your picture's worht a thousand words |
|
I'll cut open my vocal chords |
|
One more night in silence next to you |
|
Just to spend another night with you |
|
(girl speaking) |
|
We say all these words, we make all these promises |
|
But are we to know, can we really make this last?. . .forever? |
|
I'm gunna make sure we never fall apart |
|
You're not trying hard enough |
|
So this can last forever |
|
I'll give my best shot holding onto what we've got |
|
I need to tell her that i'm ready |
|
Whether she's ready or not |
