lyrics

Okay, I know I said I’d help you out but this is ridiculous.
Coming over every day and eating breakfast at my house is looking suspicious.
And now your best friend’s shocked when she sees us together even though you live next door and your snarky look implies that I don’t have a chance with her and you won’t help me with my problems till I help you with yours.

So I guess I’m backed into a corner, but I don’t care I’m not scared of a challenge.
So let’s come up with a plan to try and get your man or you’ll keep pushing me around for as long as I’ll allow it.
And I’ll let you, ‘cause I think it’s kinda cute how you try so hard.
And I can’t stand to see you fail so I really wanna root for you.

Okay, it’s time to set this plan in motion so just act natural.
If he runs away then I guess that’s fine we’re just gonna have to run after him.
And now a simple task becomes anything but that because you fell and hit the floor.
And even though I broke your fall it doesn’t help your pride at all.
So it’ll sit here and console you until I can’t no more.

So I guess it’s harder than we thought it’s be
But it’s fine just give it time and we’ll get it.
I don’t wanna see you cryin’ ‘cause good things take time and
I promise if you’re patient then you won't regret it.
But apparently, people talk and about how we’ve been spending our time
And when word spreads far enough it doesn’t matter if any of it’s true.


Okay, So everybody’s talking about us, but nobody listens.
You just live next door and it’s nothing more.
I wish that they would let us explain it.
‘Cause if they really paid attention, it’s obvious that I’m not yours, you’re not mine.
You say you’ll set the record straight and put a stop to everything.
That you’re sure it’s gonna work, then we can go back to our old lives.

And it’s strange I don’t know if I want that.
You’re a pain though I think I kinda like it.
But I’ll let you go and do whatever you have to,
If it’s a means to an end then I guess that I can’t fight it
but I want to…
Stay like this and stand by you ‘cause it just feels right
If things went back to normal I don’t think that I’d know what to do.

Okay, so I suppose that this is my life, I’m gonna have to get used to it.
It’s a little weird now that you’re not here, I thought that this is what I wanted.
So now I’m confused and not sure what to do ‘cause you won’t come around anymore.
I’m not saying it’s an issue and definitely don’t miss you
But I keep looking up and thinking that you’ll walk through the door.

So you say that this is how things have to be, but I don’t think that you’ll be okay without me.
You’re nothing but a mess, a clumsy girl, a nervous wreck.
And when I see you looking hopeless all I wanna do is help you.
So there’s something, you decided that you want and you’ve fixed your sites.
And I said that I would help so I guess I’m gonna stay and see this through.
