I love Taylor
Took a deep breath in the mirror
He didn't like it when I wore high heels, but I do
Turn the lock and put my headphones on
He always said he didn't get this song but I do, I do
Walked in, expecting you'd be late
But you got here early and you stand and wave
I walk to you
You pull my chair out and help me in
And you don't know how nice that is, but I do
And you throw your head back laughing like a little kid
I think it's strange that you think I'm funny 'cause he never did
I've been spending the last eight months
Thinking all love ever does is break and burn and end
But on a Wednesday in a cafe, I watched it begin again
You said you never met one girl who
Had as many James Taylor records as you, but I do
We tell stories and you don't know why
I'm coming off a little shy, but I do
But you throw your head back laughing like a little kid
I think it's strange that you think I'm funny 'cause he never did
I've been spending the last eight months
Thinking all love ever does is break and burn and end
But on a Wednesday in a cafe, I watched it begin again
And we walked down the block to my car
And I almost brought him up
But you start to talk
About the movies that your family watches
Every single Christmas, and I will talk about that
And for the first time, what's past is past
'Cause you throw your head back laughing like a little kid
I think it's strange that you think I'm funny 'cause he never did
I've been spending the last eight months
Thinking all love ever does is break and burn and end
But on a Wednesday in a cafe, I watched it begin again
But on a Wednesday in a cafe, I watched it begin again
Hey, I heard it from the state
They told me you were never gonna let me get away
And if you took me fishing, you would never give me bait
I had to get away, I had to get away, ay-ay
Hey, you try to compensate
For thinking with your one brain I should decapitate
You showed me all your letters that I should've confiscated
Both of my eyes were weighted and I had to get away
Talking to ears that have been deaf for as long as I can remember
A self-medicated handicap, so I speak to myself
And I try so hard to get his stupid deaf ears to hear
That I've become illiterate, I've become dumb
When I come through, you were dark blue
And I saved you from your darker days
Born to take care of you, or I thought so
Maybe it was just a phase
Hey, I heard it from the state
They told me you were never gonna let me get away
And if you took me fishing, you would never give me bait
I had to get away, I had to get away, I had to get away
Hey, you try to compensate
For thinking with your one brain I should decapitate
You showed me all your letters that I should've confiscated
Both of my eyes were weighted, I had to get away
Shot down by a guy I never wanted to kiss
And I can hear the singing of his ringing triumphing
And I'm chugging along in a train
And I'm heading the wrong way, and I'm a trainwreck
And my heart goes "Beat, beat, beat"
To the music of this sad, same song
It's quite depressing
There is no fixing to the problem when you're talking to an idiot
When I come through, you were dark blue
And I saved you, from your darker days
Born to take care of you, or I thought so
Maybe it was just a phase
Baby, only maybe
Just a dreamer, but I soon found out
That the train tracks were behind me
Tried to warn me, but both of my ears went out
(But then my ears went out, out, out...)
When I come through, you were dark blue
And I saved you, from your darker days
Born to take care of you, or I thought so
Maybe it was just a phase
Hey, I heard it from the state
They told me you were never gonna let me get away
And if you took me fishing, you would never give me bait
I had to get away, I had to get away, I had to get away
Hey, you try to compensate
For thinking with your one brain I should decapitate
You showed me all your letters that I should've confiscated
Both of my eyes were weighted, I had to get away
