lyrics

Don't wanna lay awake at night
and wonder if maybe i'm just being moody
don't wanna let you go and hope
that somehow the world might bring you back to me
don't wanna hear you say it hurts
and sometimes i wish that i never did love you
baby i don't want a lot of things
but that doesn't make them anything less than true

and ever since you showed me how
to climb up on the roof
i've been doing it nightly
who'd have thought that
a place of quiet could ever exist
above a room i live in
the other night i sat in the dark
and cried for the first time since i was thirteen
i know i've been acting different
but i'm gonna miss this shitty apartment

been thinking bout a lot of things
but i haven'y quite yet come to any conclusions
considering every angle
and always ending with one of us losing
i wish i could answer like i knew
when you ask what i think you should do
i know i've been acting different
but i can't believe how much i love you

do you think that this could be
what it feels like to be loving truly
wishing you could see
what every single move you make does to me
if we're being honest i'm a little bit terrified
because i never told you
but my parents also met at my age in college

Don't wanna lay awake at night
and wonder if maybe i'm just being moody
don't wanna letchu go and hope
that somehow the world might bring you back to me
don't wanna hear you say it hurts
and sometimes i wish that i never did love you
baby i don't want a lot of things
but that doesn't make them anything less than true
