lyrics

I roofed today with a broken heart
Cause you and me (we) are not in love
But we'd like to be
the one's that wrinkle up and die
with the other by the side
O!
I'd like another drink
O!
Would you like another drink
We'll drink this night away
and we'll try not to obey
The swelter and the sweat
That has too many regrets

These are the last words that I'll say to you again

This is where I'll crossword
and you'll sip lemonade
we'll yell at all the young punks
walking by our place
We said that with a smile
We laughed as we wanted truth
but there's gotta be a reason why
I could (N)ever kiss you
O!

It's ironic that I gave up on love
Around the same time that I learned to write love songs
It's iconic that we'd never get this right
While looking for any excuse to
TOUCH! TOUCH! TOUCH!
There's plenty of room on this air mattress bed
That you use as a couch
but we'll meet in the middle
so our shoulders can make love
sweet love

We really don't need to talk this close
We're almost nose to runny nose
I can hear you from here
This is so unnecessary
You're so beautiful
that I find it scary
