Falling In Love With Your Best Friend

i heard a song once

about falling in love with your best friend

i'd give about anything to hear that song again

last summer i was

singing along with my favorite band

every word they'd scream was neon green

i already knew i'd fallen apart

but that was the first time i'd noticed

that i was slowly but surely coming back together

i heard a song once

broke my heart on the drive back to michigan

coming slow through lancing at 3 am

pulled into the driveway

let the car run

i've been gone

for way too long

and i wanted to call you

or just show up at your house or something

even though i knew it wouldnt make me feel any better

last summer i was

trying not to fall in love with anyone

because there's way too much work to get done

last summer i was

living down in bloomington

it had been so long since i felt young,

maybe i was just running away

as if it's just a bad thing

to try

and make my life better

i heard a song once

about falling in love with your best friend

i'd give about anything, to hear that song again
