| «Close the door,"he says
|
| «This'll only be a minute»
|
| But sometimes minutes can get
|
| Caught in suspension
|
| «I finally figured it out
|
| And you’re that someone
|
| Who knows a little more
|
| Than something about me.»
|
| He says, «I met this girl out in Palm Springs
|
| Man, she’s the best! |
| You’d be so happy for me!»
|
| And it hits me hard
|
| Seeing this blue-eyed dream sprouting wings
|
| And flying away from me Flying away from me, yeah
|
| What if I say you love me?
|
| Could I make it true?
|
| We could build us something
|
| That would mean something to you
|
| Cause when I close my eyes
|
| I’m in this world where you don’t have a girl
|
| And I’m right by your side
|
| Say you love me It don’t mean that I’ll ever have you
|
| Oh, no So we’re driving home
|
| I look out at the rain on the roads out my Passenger window
|
| It’s been one of those nights
|
| It all feels so alive
|
| Man, you bet, I’m going to hate saying goodbye
|
| He pulls up on my driveway
|
| Says, «See you on Friday»
|
| If he only knew what I’d do to be
|
| The rain on his coat
|
| Those keys that he holds
|
| Or the one he has waiting back home
|
| I’m not going to lie
|
| A stubborn part of me keeps the hope alive
|
| That someday I’ll be yours and you’ll be mine
|
| And I know you’ll never understand
|
| So to keep from losing my best friend
|
| I hold it all inside
|
| Say you love me We could build us something |
