Nervous

Two nights ago we said goodbye
In a borrowed car in the Hollywood hills
I held you, but I should have held you tighter and longer
Two years of laughter and one year of pain
Come crashing to a halt to its final resting place
You came over today to a house full of all of our things
And you were holding your coat
You didn't know where to put it down
And you couldn't look me in the eyes
They were darting all around
And being nervous around you
Oh well, that's something new
That's something new
Being nervous around you
Oh, that's something new
That's something new
Being nervous around you
Oh, that's something new
Then you put down your coat and you start to walk towards me
And I don't know what it means
But this time I'm gonna hold you a little tighter
And a little longer
And being nervous around you
Oh, that's something new
That's something new
Being nervous around you
Oh, that's something new
That's something new
Being nervous around you
Oh, that's something new
