Sour candy on the table
Lazy afternoons in your sweatpants watching cable
Well, it feels so far away
All the channels seem the same
Trying to remember all the songs we like to play
'Cause those lazy afternoons don't come so frequently these days
Oh, it's been so long
And I cannot help but wonder
Are you ever coming home?
I like you with your sour candy
In the boathouse on the lake
Oh, but I hate, I hate, I hate, I hate, I hate
I hate the way it tastes
I can't get you off of my mind
Looking out the window
Where we spent so much of our time
'Cause I miss the way it felt
But I guess you can't control those damn cards we're dealt
And babe, I know the both of us are happy when we're free
But would it be so hard to find your freedom here with me?
Oh, it's been so long
And I cannot help but wonder
Are you ever coming home?
I like you with your sour candy
In the boathouse on the lake
But I hate, I hate, I hate, I hate, I hate
I hate the way it tastes
And I, I hate the way it tastes
But I love it all the same
And I, I hate the way it tastes
But I love it all the same
Oh and I know it's been, it's been, it's been, it's been, so long
And I cannot help but wonder
Are you ever coming home?
I like you with your sour candy
In the boathouse on the lake
Mm but I hate, I hate, I hate, I hate, I hate
I hate the way it tastes
Oh, it's been, it's been so long
And I cannot help but wonder
Are you ever coming home?
When I see you with your sour candy
Don't want it any other way
Oh, I just hate, I hate, I hate, I hate, I hate
I hate the way it tastes
