lyrics

You ask me if I’ve written any songs for you
But, babe, I told you a long time ago
I can only make good music when my heart is split in two
So I could never make good music for you

But now you say that you love me and it hurts really bad
Because I've got a plane ticket home
And we know that we are both going to fall apart
About a day after I leave you alone

And babe we’ve got FaceTime and messenger apps
And I know it’s not the same as you lying in my lap
But I’ll wait for you to visit and I’ll have you on my mind
While i desperately try to continue my life

Try to hold on to your smell and the weight of your chest
I’ll put your clothes in my closet and I’ll throw out the rest
Make a book of all the photos that I've taken of you
While we were eating our breakfast, and I’ll put them in my desk

And you should sleep with other people if they’re flirting with you
'Cause baby love ain't always what it's about
And I hate the idea of you going so long
Without the feeling of somebody else's mouth

But I want you to hate it, and I want you to be sad
When you wake up with somebody new
And I want you to call me while you’re walking on home
I’ll be going to sleep though it's morning for you

And babe we’ve got FaceTime and messenger apps
And I know it’s not the same as you lying in my lap
But I’ll wait for you to visit and I’ll have you on my mind
While i desperately try to continue my life

Try to hold on to your smell and the weight of your chest
I’ll put your clothes in my closet and I’ll throw out the rest
Make a book of all the photos that I've taken of you
While we were eating our breakfast, and I’ll put them in my desk

Now if you ask me if I’ve written any songs for you
Babe, I told you a long time ago
I’ve only ever made good music when my heart was split in two
But now I’ve written a little love song for you
