lyrics

GONNA HAVE TO LEAVE YOU NOW THAT I CAN
IF I DON’T DO IT NOW, THEN I NEVER WILL
YOU AND I WE LOOK SO OLD, JUST DON’T FIT NO MORE
MY CLOTHES ARE FROM ANOTHER TIME WHEN YOU WERE IN LOVE

SO THERE’S NO TELLING WHAT TO DO
USE TO MAKE MORE SENSE TO BE WITH YOU

WHEN LOVE WAS SPROUTING YOU KISSED AND HUGGED ME
TOOK ME PLACES ALWAYS ASKED WHAT’S UP

GONNA TUNE OUT MY HEAD, IT DON'T BEACON WELL
PASSING THROUGH THE COUNTRY IN A RENTED VAN
OUR WHOLE APARTMENT'S PACKED INTO THE BOXES WE HAVE BACK THERE.
WE DON'T REALLY SAY THAT MUCH, WE BOTH KNOW WE'RE DAMNED.

SO THERE’S NO TELLING WHAT TO SAY
ALL I DO IS STAY OUT OF YOU WAY

WHEN PEOPLE ASK ABOUT OUR STATUS
PLEASE JUST LIE AND SAY WE’RE FINE
CAUSE NOTHINGS WORSE THAN FAKED SYMPATHY
WHAT THEY’LL THINK IS FINALLY THEY’RE DONE

CERTAIN ABOUT WHAT’S TO COME
YOU ACT LISTLESS BUT SO DO I
THERE’S NOTHING TO EAT IN THIS TRUCK STOP
WORN OUT CUTLERY, STALE BREAD

I REFUSE TO LET THIS RELATIONSHIP CRASH IN THIS SAD SAD PLACE
8 YEARS IS A LONG TIME, I WON’T LEAVE
TAKE THIS CHANCE

SO THERE`S NO TELLING WHAT TO SAY
ALL I DO IS STAY OUT OF YOUR WAY

BUT WE KINDA MAKE NICE
AND I GIVE YOU A GOOD KISS
YOU TELL ME THAT IN A WAY
YOU WILL ALWAYS LOVE ME

SO I GO DOWN ON ONE KNEE
ASK IF YOU’LL MARRY ME
BUT OF COURSE YOU SAY ”NO”.
