What I Should Have Learned In Study Hall

Well I waited till you packed your bags,

Took a picture and hoped it would last,

With you all the way through,

All the nights you and I couldn't have.

Now I know that it shouldn't be this hard,

But you've moved yourself too damn far.

And I won't suffice,

When there's two thousand miles to drive.

I'm thinking it over,

I'm thinking of all the days and nights

We would spend laughing.

Are you happy,

In Colorado, with the mountains,

Did you like them?

Did you find what you're looking for?

Because I'm still searching for the life we were living before.

You seem so young and so full of life,

Well I'm getting older with each hopeless night.

You're still always on my mind,

Are we through this time?

Well angels should ask you,

What you're doing with me.

I'm an apple that slipped too far from the tree.

But I'm burning to rot away silently,

As you grow into something more promising.

And now we've got these god damn words,

That mean nothing when I can't see your face,

Or have your body for touching.

And everything I eat,

It tastes like you,

So what are you trying to prove,

In Colorado, with the mountains,

Did you like them?

Did you find what you're looking for?

Because I'm still searching for the life we were living before.

And if I dropped everything and book a flight,

Flown into Denver that night we would crash at night,

Cuz the odds are against us,

So all bets are off,

Just know you meant more than I ever could want.

I'm giving up . . .

Just giving you up . . .

If just for one more night,

Then I'll be happy to walk away.

You could put on that dress you know I love,

Taking it ?

You always knew what I liked.

They base movies off our lives but somehow they wouldn't suffice.

You've got moves and abuse them,

And I've got pictures to prove enough,

And all the way, ?

You're burning every note I ever sent,

So I'll find you,

In Colorado, with the mountains,

Did you like them?

Did you find what you're looking for?

Because I'm still searching for the life we were living before.

And if I dropped everything and book a flight,

Flown into Denver that night we would crash at night,

Cuz the odds are against us,

So all bets are off,

Just know you meant more than I ever could want.
