We End Up Together

In the summertime,
I don’t know if the stars were aligned.
We’d stumble onto something we would like
And I’m afraid I lost the words tonight

And in your summer dress, was holding you
But you were holding less
It’s not the words, it’s the ones you stress
I love as I love you just don’t love me less

And once in a while,
I know our hearts beat of time.
And once in a while,
I know they’ll fall back in line.

And in the summertime,
I don’t know if the stars were aligned
We’d stumble onto something we would like
And I’m afraid I lost the words tonight

And when we’re middle aged,
You tell me I loved you like a renegade
And how I say the things that make you sway.
And mostly I tell you you did the same.

And once in a while,
I know our hearts beat out of time.
And once in a while,
I know they’ll fall back in line.

Our love is strong.
Our love is strong.
Our love is strong.
While my heart’s still pumping blood.

I made my place by the door.
I didn’t know what I was waiting for.
Felt just like home.
Except no grass, no yard, no pictures.

I could see across to the park.
And there were friends, they were laughing hard.
They looked just like my home.
With no face, no name, no voice I’d know.

I finally made it.
I made a clean getaway.
I finally made it.
I made a clean getaway.

I met someone at the bar.
He had a great smile and a great heart.
He felt just like love.
Except no fear of losing, and it wasn’t tough.

I finally made it.
I made a clean getaway.
I finally made it.
I made a clean getaway.
And I miss you,
I miss you every single day.

So I’m just a medicine
You take when you’re sick
You get well and that’s it
I’m put back on the shelf in your mirror
And it isn’t exeptional
The course of our fate
Because people love and they hate
And I guess
It’s just all turned to hate
Yeah, you were just some song I wrote
A poem on a page
A sculpture I made
Out of clay
Desire was the flame
But now you’re more of a basketball
Boys just pass you around
They bounce you hard on the ground
And dribble
Then we all get high fives
And you think I’m an asshole now
Well, you’re probably right
But at least I’m not blind to the facts
I’ve been wishing were all lies
But still, I hope you get everything
That you care to possess
And unbelievable sex
With him
Or any one of my friends
But just don’t ask about my appetite
I didn’t lose it tonight
It’s been gone half my life
It’s just, I
I’ve been eating for you.
