lyrics

I keep hearing footsteps thinking it's you
Hoping they'll walk through the door
But none of them ever do

Maybe I'm thinking too much
And not listening enough
And I'm just avoiding the end of the month

I've seen my life both ways and there's no way
That I'm gonna let you go
I wish I knew what to say
Oh, anyway you probably already

So what can I do to get you to stay?
I don't want to be selfish but you're all that I wanted
I'd put the ocean in a bottle
Or the sky under the roof of a chapel
But you can go if you have to

I don't want to save this for later
Like left over dinner when the taste falls bitter
I've learned to speak honestly and I've never been this kind of happy

Oh, starry eyed and dizzy why can't you just stay with me
But maybe I've got my hopes to high thinking about you and I

I've seen my life both ways and there's no way
That I'm gonna let you go
I wish I knew what to say
Oh, anyway you probably already

So what can I do to get you to stay?
I don't want to be selfish but you're all that I wanted
I'd turn water into land
Or hold sunlight in my hand
But if you go I can understand

So go, go if you have to I will learn to not think of you
So go, go if you have to I will learn to not miss you
So go, go if you have to I will learn to learn to unlove you
So go, go if you have to I will learn to give up on you
