He said You listen to the who babe- don’t you?
He wishes he was young in 1972
he’s always got something else better to do
Cocaine, Kerouac, gin and juice
You’re in love with my image babe
Don’t pretend its anything else
If you want a clean slate
Go fall in love with somebody else
I won’t mind
I know I’ll never be good enough
We don’t see enough of each other now
You’ve got another girl’s lipstick on your mouth
I still feel your fingers on the small of my back
And you tell me to move on but I don’t know how
I still feel your kisses on the edge of my mouth
So when you tell me to move on well I don’t know how
I don’t know how
Youre in love with my image babe
Don’t pretend its anything else
If you want a clean slate
Go fall in love with somebody else
I won’t mind
I know I’ll never be good enough
I’ll never be good enough
I’ll never be good enough
I know I’ll never be good enough for you
He says you listen to the who babe - don’t you?
He wishes he was young in 1972

Got the same sticker on your skateboard
That I have on my phone
Tell me about how you don’t know how to be alone
Kiss me in the taxi until I get home
I don’t really know what it’s like to have self control
Can I be happy
Well That’s up to you
You say you don’t want me
But I know you do
You say you don’t need me
But I know you do
Say what you want
And ill give it to you
we go out to that bar you know across town
Link at your friends house
Have a couple drinks
tell me about the things
You don’t talk about
When you’re sober
Baby I know ya
You only act like a nice guy
When my tops too tight
And you know I can’t think straight
Don’t think I’ll ever want to think straight
Don’t think I’d ever want to think straight around you
Take me down with you
Take me down with you
Can I be happy well that’s up to you
You say you don’t want me
But I know you do
You say you don’t need me
But I know you do
Say what you want and I’ll give it to you
Say what you want
I can give it to you

I’ve been finding it hard to sleep without you baby
And ive been finding it hard to speak around you lately
And you think that I find it easy to be happy
But i think I forgot what it’s like to not be lonely
Without you baby
Without you baby
Without you baby
I remember the day we first met
You couldn’t speak cause you’d done too much ket
But you told me I looked good in my black dress
And you kissed me on the cheek as I left
I remember the day we first met
When we sat on the couch and we watched silhouettes
Smoke drink and dance to Bennie and the jets
and you asked me baby are you in love yet
You asked me baby are you in love yet?
I know you think that I find this easy
Find this easy
So I think you forgot what it’s like to be lonely
Without me baby

I don’t need to know your name
you don’t have to love me
I don’t need another friend
You just have to want me
My heart and my head
Both say this isn’t good for me
But we both know I’m too fucked up
To listen to them baby
we drove around the city last night
Then when you dropped me home you kissed me goodnight
id like to see you again sometime
But if I fall in love again I wont survive
baby I’d rather be lonely for life
You grew your hair out over summer babe
And now you look too much like him
Kiss me until I feel okay
I just want to get him
Out of my head
we drove around the city last night
Then when you dropped me home you kissed me goodnight
id like to see you again sometime
But if I fall in love again I wont survive
we drove around the city last night
Then when you dropped me home you kissed me goodnight
id like to see you again sometime
But if I fall in love again I wont survive
baby I’d rather be lonely for life

Real love is ugly but I don’t mind;
Like those bruises on my neck you left the other night.
left half your heart in Tokyo, the other in Anaheim
And now your lungs can’t handle love - it’s too much exercise.
You stayed the night again and it was too soon.
You left your shirt on the floor of my room.
We stayed in bed until late afternoon
and now I’m in love with the feeling
Of your hands in my hair,
Your lips on my neck,
Not sleeping til sunrise
you wanting me back
The last time we talked you said you wanted to come home to come watch me sing at one of my shows
But I know you just don’t want to be alone
And as soon as I’m near you’ll want to be on your own.
If there was no one else around I’d be the one for you
But at this point girls and cocaine are all you want to do
When I’m with him you go out of your mind
If I say I don’t want you would that make us alright? (X3)
when I’m with him you go out of your mind
So if I say I don’t want you would that make us alright?
