The End
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We've only ever kissed lying down
We've only ever touched when there's no one else around
I can be elusive if you want me to
I'm not being intrusive I just wish I knew the truth
As to why I wait for you
Longer than the average person would
And why I think about you
More than I think one should
Our bodies fit together like a make shift puzzle
It's clear to see why you puzzle me
When you turn your frame and you whisper my name
As though I am a burden
Because I'm making up for lost time
And I'm making up for you
And I'm waking up from last night
And I'm waking up with you
So what's new?
So what's new?
I am at your house
I belong to you for now
Trying to impress you but lord I don't know how
I can be a statue if you want me too
I'm not being difficult I just need to know the truth
As to why I'm wanting you
And I would take away if I could
And why I'm still here
It's something I still haven't understood
Our hands pressed together like pieces of paper
But they're always blank when I hold your hand
And it gave you a fright when I say the night
And you give yourself to me
Because I'm making up for lost time
And I'm making up for you
And I'm waking up from last night
And I'm waking up with you
So what's new?
So what's new?
It's not the end
It's not the end
So don't lets pretend
Because I'm making up for lost time
And I'm making up for you
And I'm waking up from last night
