lyrics

If there's words, than I'll remember,
So I got to make words work,
and remember time and place, and where I was.
I'm alone on my bed's corner, and that's the only place I've been,
While the city weather's right now to explore.

But I think I'll keep it up, oh if you only knew,
how I keep it up. How I still keep talking to you.

If I had only waited until you walked it out,
if I had only eyes to see it through,
If I was just a second late to call you out,
would you turn around or go straight home?

Would you call me in the afternoon,
like you'd do when nothing's wrong, nothing's wrong?

I think you'd probably wait until you built it up.
You would just hold on to being mad.
I have seen the bites from the calmest friends,
and you're just way too calm to be that cool.

But I think I'll keep it up, If you only knew,
how I keep it up, how I just keep talking to you.
