Waiting for my friend to wake up
So we can talk in the night
Like the old days
Though you like the songs i sing to you
All the words they are untrue
But i promise just like i always do,
Though you like the songs i sing to you
All the words are no longer true
But i promise just like i always do.
I try to see the world the world through her eyes now
It seems she thinks all leaves are butterflies now
Though you like the songs i sing to you
All the words they are untrue
But i promise just like i always do,
Though you like the songs i sing to you
All the words are no longer true
But i promise just like i always do.
