Lyrics
Jinx
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.
Sitting in the mezzanine of this stupid library, fidgeting
Swimming in a reservoir off of Highway 64, just visiting
You said your family owns a cottage
Empty for the summer, interesting
Now I'm kissing you in the park
When we said that we were social distancing
Nothing's been good for a while
But I think you could change my life if you tried it out
Sitting on the beach
Let our mouths run a mean streak
Gossiping 'bout people that we care about
You know I don't mean it
I know you don't mean it
But you're the only guy I know who's decent
When the world is quiet I can hear you thinking
God, I think I love you
I don't wanna jinx it
I think my Achillеs heel is your hands 'round the steering wheel
Gripping
We watched your family film reels
Your dad in thе 80s
The image, it's spitting
With my last bit of minutes
I call you from the balcony of my grandparents' building
To tell you that the thing that I said last time about loving you
Well, I was only kidding
Nothing's been good for a while
But I think you could change my life if you tried it out
Playing you my music and trying to act elusive
When you ask me what that song's about
You tell me 'bout ex-girlfriends
Practicing our accents
Talk about our present lives in the past tense
When the world is quiet I can hear you thinking
God, I think I love you
I don't wanna jinx it
I don't wanna jinx it
I don't wanna jinx it
I don't wanna jinx it
Nothing's been good for a while
Nothing's been good for a while
Nothing's been good for a while
Nothing's been good for a while
Nothing's been good for a while
But I think you could change my life if you tried it out
I'm such a sucker for movies
About teenagers who ride around in cars and then fall in love
And can't you see the future?
You can make me breakfast
I'll be extroverted and you'll be introspective
When the world is quiet I can hear you thinking
God, I think I love you
I don't wanna jinx it
