lyrics

I can’t even tell anymore
The waves are getting bigger
It’s getting harder to stand
It’s getting harder to see

All the days I used to wait at your door
In silent excitement
Now what was your address again?
What was your address again?

Maybe I could be your man
If was another man
If I was another man
Maybe then I could understand
If I was another man
Getting better isn’t part of the plan
I just let my condition worsen
Everybody wants their person

Now we’re coming to the end of the night
And our legs have been touching
Laughing, we have nothing in common except each other

We watch a scary movie
The plot line is ridiculous
Our acting is ridiculous
I shouldn’t be here

Maybe I could be your man
If was another man
If I was another man
Maybe then I could understand
If I was another man
Getting better isn’t part of the plan
I just let my condition worsen
Everybody wants their person

I would say I’m playing with you
But that would imply you’re not aware
And if this is worth leaning into
I probably need a year without you there
And if within that year or so, you find someone who already knows
Go, go

But maybe I could be your man
If was another man
If I was another man
Maybe then I could understand
If I was another man
Getting better isn’t part of the plan
I just let my condition worsen
Everybody wants their person
