Waking up to these same four empty walls
Today's the day I'll change it all, I swear
When I get there, if I get there, and you're there
I'll have so much to try to say to you
If you only knew, but you've probably already guessed
I feel like a fool, but that's the way it goes, standing on my toes
I don't know what to do, my brain feels like glue, and I'm thinking up more excuses
For why you did what you did, and why I can't be a man and just buck up and ask you
Driving off with my heart stuck in my throat
It wasn't supposed to go like that, I swear
Promise myself that I'll make up another excuse
To come back tomorrow and finally tell you
If I only knew what you wanted me to do
I know I'm a fool
But that's the way it goes, awkward and alone, hiding in a corner, it's gnawing at my soul
I don't know what to do, my brain feels like glue, and I'm thinking up more excuses
For why you did what you did, and why I can't be a man and just buck up and ask you
All about the things you like to do and do you like me too
And would you like to get to know me better
Oh well, maybe tomorrow
