Unpack your bags, where do you think you're going?
You're already far enough from me
I'm fresh out of my fresh excuses
So, plain and simple, I don't want you to leave
Can't you wait until tomorrow?
Next week? Next month? (Never?)
Procrastination is a virtue
Well, at least that's how it seems to me
What we have won't last long
Through the heat of California's sun
There's a current in the coastline
And it's pulling you from me
As long as sun shines through your window
I'm still your Florida boy
And the summer's almost here
Let's stay eighteen forever
Who said our summer sun would have to set?
California's calling, but I'm already on the line
So don't you dare put me on hold
I wanna hold you close to me
Wait up, I've got you figured out
You wanna grow up, move out, and start a new life
You've got your cold shoulder
"You can't keep me from going"
But your heart sank when you saw the look in my eyes
We could live with no obligations, we're still young
"But you don't understand, I've gotta get the hell out of this town"
I'm just used to the Atlantic, like you used to dive into me
The waves of your waterbed never waved goodbye
Just wait a minute, that's all I need
I've only got this chance to change your mind
So let our tongues do all the talking
And let your hips slide up to mine
I'm still your Florida boy
And the summer's almost here
Let's stay eighteen forever
Who said our summer sun would have to set?
California's calling, but I'm already on the line
So don't you dare put me on hold
I wanna hold you close to me
I'm not [usually] one to break my word
And I mean [most of] the things I say
(Something tells me...)
But when I said sometimes it's best to follow your heart
(I won't last a day without you here)
I never said I didn't need you
But still, I stand by that advice
'Cause home is where the heart is
So long as my pictures line your mirror
You have no excuse to pack them in a box
My feet are planted on the floor
Between your covers and the door
And I'm not leaving
(I'm standing in your doorway)
So don't you walk away from me
(I'm kneeling in your doorway)
I'm on my knees, I'm desperate
