What I Need 04:18
I've got plans to make But planning might be risky I've got time to waste if you will waste it with me And I know I dont know you well but this could be good I can tell So won't you keep me company please? Lately I've been spending my time under the covers wishing you were hiding with me wash away the world cause nothing that I've ever felt compares to what is happening now maybe I am crazy but I'd like to be your girl So strange to finally feel like what I need is there and I'm no longer scared yeah all my inhibitions vanish into the night air and you and me will be what we will be only time will tell so I guess we'll see twenty years is long to wait I've battled broken hearts I'm great at being really independent but its not as fun as sharing songs and sharing thoughts and making out in parking lots and being so inspired by the things that we could do So keep me by your side, i'll stick with you, I swear cause I'm no longer scared and all my inhibitions vanish into the night air and you and me will be what we will be only time will tell so I guess we'll see and all the problems we have to endure I've been through all kinds of problems before and these are nothing at all I assure you the good outweighs the bad, times a million yeah! I don't care cause I'm no longer scared and all my inhibitions vanish into the night air and you and me will be what we will be only time will tell so I guess we'll see

Well the day breaks and I play dead cause I can't fake that my empty bed isn't lonely in the mornings without you and I'm back where I was before and the game's fair if you're keeping score but we aren't, are we... Slowly my doubts begin to surface So tell me if all of this is worth it but I like what I've found keep me around and the day's short so I drive fast and I've long since forgot my past but something's got me hesitating now but I'll stay here and I'll stay still and I'll stay with you if you say you will let me rest my tired head next to yours and I'm missing what I never had second guessing what my insticts said when they told me I've got nothing to fear. cause I don't. and I won't. I wish you were here.

Well I'm sitting here in silence and I'm feeling so discouraged. 'Cause I only want to call you, but I just don't have the courage. And it seems like only yesterday, things were going fine. It's funny how our lives can change in only seconds time. And I know I'll miss the bad jokes, and the way you never called. I know I'll miss the way your TV glowed blue on the wall as we lay there in the darkness. Try to understand it all. Understand it all. Couldn't understand at all. I'm sorry that I never could quite say this to your face. Always hiding behind melody lines, hooks that keep me safe. And I know this may be catchy but I know you can't relate, so what's possible's impossible, and that I won't debate. But I know I'll miss the bad jokes, and the way you never called. I know I'll miss the way your TV glowed blue on the wall as we lay there in the darkness. Try to understand it all. Understand it all. Couldn't understand at all. So don't take this the wrong way. This is nothing like the past. I'm fine and I am okay with the fact that this won't last. And I'll try to fix my problem, sorry I was so afraid of what could've been, what should've been, oh what a mess I've made... 'Cause I know I'll miss the bad jokes, and the way you never called. I know I'll miss the way your TV glowed blue on the wall as we lay there in the darkness. Try to understand it all. Understand it all. Couldn't understand at all.

And another day goes by where I'm stuck still wondering why I'm in the passenger seat of a car that's going nowhere. I could sit here by your side, or I could take a chance and try my best to find someone who doesn't let me down. And it's time to hear the words that I've been saying. Nevermind my promises before. We could try to fix these ties before they're broken. Say my name and I am there, but I still don't know what I'm here for. And you know that being happy doesn't have to be this hard. Don't you see with every risk you take you go and break my heart? I can't stand here any longer simply nodding soft and slow, 'cause I know that doing nothing is worse than letting go. And it's time to hear the words that I've been saying. Nevermind my promises before. We could try to fix these ties before they're broken. Say my name and I am there, but I still don't know what I'm here for.

Many many weeks And I'm still sleeping on my own Waking to the whispers of the night And I'm finding out the secrets That I wish I'd never known Keep me at a distance, I'm alright But I'm lying to keep me afloat And I'm trying to keep my eyes closed Soon the dark will be gone And the right won't feel wrong But I'm dying to know where you go, oh Many many times I've wrestled thoughts of giving up Swear I'd give it all to you tonight But I've been told by many Not to trust the one you love Keep them at a distance. Yes, thats right But I'm lying to keep me afloat And I'm trying to keep my eyes closed Soon the dark will be gone And the right wont feel wrong But I'm dying to know where you go, oh So I'm lying to keep me afloat And I'm trying to keep my eyes closed Soon the dark will be gone And the right wont feel wrong But I'm dying to know where you go Where you go, where you go

Boy, you make it easy to forget we ever met All this talk of keepin' touch, there's been no talkin' yet So tell me when you're ready, man, and I'll call you my friend But I don't mind Calling this the end Boy, you make it easy for a girl to lose her head Losing sleep, and losing time, hey, losers never win So shake my hand, call it a tie, and I'll call you my friend, But I don't mind Calling this the end Boy, you make it easy for a memory to bend Fact and fiction fading into one confusing blend So I'll remember good things now, and I'll call you my friend But I don't mind Calling this the end There are people who have changed my life And there are people I have left behind If you ain't up to it, I'll let it die But it's up to you to change my mind Boy, you've got it easy, leaving, starting over fresh Abandoning beginnings that you brought to life and left So pack your bags and say goodbye, and call me sometime, friend 'Cause I don't mind Calling this the end The End.
