You wear your friend's dress
Skintight flowers springing into my head
Damn, the light looks good shining on your hair
Can't look into those eyes I just might fall in
You throw me like a carousel, babe
I don't wanna go home just yet
Ten years or so this slipper might fit
Hope the white picket fence feels nice
Married in the backyard
Name our kids after the lyrics we grew up on
Read them books I wrote you when we were just as young
You couldn't understand why
You couldn't understand how
You can understand when we figure this out (Out, out)
Quick dismissal of this
Bigger questions, say you can't explain it
You're just certain you'll be back in August
When summer's all but gone
And you'll just leave again
Can't help but seeing in red
When you're blue, it's my bed, it's purple
Forgive all the silent distance
Worth the small resistance that's hurtful
Married in the backyard
Name our kids after the lyrics we grew up on
Read them books I wrote you when we were just as young
You couldn't understand why
You couldn't understand how
You can understand when we figure this out (Out, out)
Think of me when you're in Italy (Think of me)
I'll be here with your old fantasies (I'll be your fantasy)
That make it hard to sleep (Hard to sleep)
Hard for us to sleep, or even eat
Every step you take away from here (Every step away from here)
I'll hold on to songs we used to share (I'll hold songs)
When we were too young (Young)
To think of these as possibilities (To think)
