about

Track 4 off Basement Confessions

lyrics

So why'd you call
If you didn't say anything at all
Were you just bored
And by yourself
Wishing that I had been somebody else
It's such a shame
It's such a shame

Oh would you say
That we're in love
Or is there some word that I am not thinking of
Something more vague
More like your face
Or a feeling that we both can't seem to replace
Is this just a game
Is this just a game

And I met a girl
Walking through the park
With a feather in her hair
And a sleeve over her heart
I said put down your guard
I could be the one
She said you can never know when someone's hiding what they love
It's what I learned that day
It's what I learned that day

So I drove home
To Brooklyn Heights
And I decided that night I was gonna change my mind
But when I woke up
All I saw's the sun
It kept peeking its head from behind a cloud in the sky
But I stayed the same
Yea I stayed the same

I couldn't help
Dream of her eyes
Every boy wanted her yea and soon it was did I
But it was just a lie
So I let her run
They say it's best to make free the hearts of those you love
But it's here I'll stay
It's here I'll stay

(I love you so)
