Matchsticks

(album: Last Stop Suburbia - 2002)

Well I've been waiting for the right time to tell her how I feel
I've been waiting so long to say what's on my mind
But I just don't think she's gonna understand
That we could watch a stupid movie while I hold her by the hand
Stay up all night talking but we'll never get the chance
So I wrote these words so maybe she'll understand

That I've been staying up all night waiting for a phone call
Staying up all night praying that I don't fall
Madly in love with this girl who's gonna break my heart
(She'll break my heart)
She's gonna break my heart
(Every time I see her)
She's gonna break my heart
(She'll break my heart)
She's gonna break my heart

Well I guess it's the right time to tell her how I feel
It's my one last shot to say what's on my mind
But I just don't think she's gonna understand
That I would drive all night just to see her for the day
Make another broken promise if she says that I could stay
So I wrote these words so maybe she'll understand

That I've been staying up all night waiting for a phone call
Staying up all night praying that I don't fall
Madly in love with this girl who's gonna break my heart
(She'll break my heart)
She's gonna break my heart
(Every time I see her)
She's gonna break my heart
(She'll break my heart)
She's gonna break my heart

Every time I see her smile that smile
I think that maybe she had saved that one for me
Then I realize that I'm going crazy
Or maybe it's just my imagination working overtime
Working overtime on a girl who's gonna break my heart
(She'll break my heart)
She's gonna break my heart
(Every time I see her)
She's gonna break my heart
(She'll break my heart)
She's gonna break my heart
(Every time I see her)
She's gonna break my heart
