Laughing (Or Pretending to Laugh) |
Woke up laughing on a hardwood floor |
In a five-storey walk, up somewhere in New York |
Still smiling from laying out on the roof |
Still smiling from opening my eyes and looking at you |
And if I walk around Brooklyn with my headphones in |
Hot cup of coffee that I spill while I’m air-drumming |
Will I one day bump into you as if by accident |
See if you wanna go somewhere and get a drink? |
'Cause I’ve been laughing or pretending to laugh |
I’ve been crying or pretending to cry |
But I could stand on this corner |
And watch you walk my way for the rest of my life |
I’ve been laughing or pretending to laugh |
I’ve been crying or pretending to cry |
But I could stand on this corner |
And watch you walk my way for the rest of my life |
And it was snowing when we drove back through the city |
Wanted to climb up on your fire escape |
And kiss you on your pretty face |
But I lay in the van and I stared into space |
Half-smiling, half-flying, half-asleep, half-awake |
And I just really needed you to know |
That you don’t have to wait out this snow alone |
And maybe I am just a reminder of home |
But I still think we made each other feel something good |
And I’ve been laughing or pretending to laugh |
I’ve been crying or pretending to cry |
But I could stand on this corner |
And watch you walk my way for the rest of my life |
I’ve been laughing or pretending to laugh |
I’ve been crying or pretending to cry |
But I could stand on this corner |
And watch you walk my way for the rest of my life |
And I don’t wanna marry you just yet |
But at least let me get you a cider |
And I don’t even think I’d have to pay for it |
Hopefully, there’s a couple left on the rider |
And just because I’ve got a lot to learn |
Does not mean that I am inherently a piece of shit |
Just because I don’t think I know everything |
Doesn’t mean that I don’t know anything |
And I don’t wanna marry you just yet |
Although it’d probably help with my visa |
And can we just continue having this conversation? |
I’ll just go and get us both a Bacardi Breezer |
And just because I’ve got a lot to learn |
Does not mean that I am inherently a piece of shit |
Just because I don’t think I know everything |
Doesn’t mean that I don’t know anything |
