Tumbleweed

(album: Goodnight Sugarpop - 2008)

You make me want to
Unlearn everything I've learned to do
Make myself better to know you
Throw out my skateboard in the trash
I was just falling on my ass
This whole time trying to impress
All of those girls that I liked less
Rip all your posters off your door
Pick up your suitcase from the floor
And come one last time to see my show
It is so hard to watch you go
Hope San Francisco's what you hope

'Cause you've got two character flaws that I can see
One, you don't know how great you are
And you are leaving me
But I know that I'll get over that eventually
And I hope that California's what you need
Oh, I hope that California's what you need
And I'm glad I finally met a tumbleweed that I'd say yet
That I hope that California's what you need
You're a tumbleweed like

She makes me want to
Curl up in my bed with her for days
Go vegan just to cook her eggs
And if I'm making a mistake
Believe it's already been made
And if she smokes a pack a day
Well, I guess even that's okay
I lost my asthma anyway
It would have loved her, it's a shame

That she let's me borrow all her books
And I catch her shooting me these looks
Wish I were smart enough for her

'Cause you've got two character flaws that I can see
One, you don't know how great you are
And you are leaving me
But I know I'll get over that eventually
And I hope that California's what you need
Oh, I hope that California's what you need
And I'm glad I finally met a tumbleweed that I'd say yet
And I can't believe how much you mean to me
You're a tumbleweed like

You make me want to
Unlearn everything I've learned to do
Make myself better to know you
Throw out my skateboard in the trash
Throw out my skateboard...

Two character flaws that I can see
One, you don't know how great you are
And you are leaving me
But I know I'll get over that eventually
And I think New York just might be what I need
Oh, I hope New York just might be what I need
And I would not take you back
In fact I'll even help you pack
'Cause I think New York just might be what I need
I'm a tumbleweed
