lyrics

I never had a lover to call my own before you
And baby trust me when I say I do adore you
But this isn’t me
Doesn’t feel like me, I gotta go home

And it’s like I’m too happy to pick up my guitar and sing
I never thought that love would make me give up my feelings
I miss my stress
I miss my friends
I miss my stress

And it’s like I’m your little handbag
I’ll be at your side 'cause you hold me so well
And it’s like I’m your chaperone waiting
I talk to your friends, show up at the end to take you home

I make all of my plans around your schedule
The train station is my new best friend
I’m addicted to your taste
So i’ll get it no matter the chase
I’m losing money, I’m losing sleep, I’m losing progress

And it’s like I’m your little handbag
I’ll be at your side cause you hold me so well
And it’s like I’m your chaperone waiting
I talk to your friends, show up at the end to take you home
And then you’ll love me, and you’ll leave me
And I’ll sit patiently waiting for you again
