One More Weekend

(album: Strangers Forever - 2021)

I fell in love with how you emphasize your sentences
And I got a crush on the shape of your name on my phone
Then I fell harder for your fifties movies references
And the world is smaller with you, maybe I'm not so alone
Or maybe we're alone together

Now you're packing up your bedroom on the west-side
So, I bring you breakfast and we lie on the floor of my apartment
Isn't it alarming, it was October, January, almost July
Here's a toast to getting older, now we're young and soon we'll die

Nothing lasts forever
One more weekend in the city
Break up through the summer
Leave me all on my own
One more weekend can you kiss me?
Tell me that you miss me even if you won't

I guess my memories get better with the distance
So, I made a list of all the reasons why I felt conflicted
You were teaching me to drive your parents car around your high school parking lot
Michigan seems like a dream, but I woke up and I forgot

Nothing lasts forever
One more weekend in the city
Break up through the summer
Leave me all on my own
One more weekend can you kiss me?
Tell me that you miss me even if you won't

(I-I wa-want you) 'Cause I know you won't
(I-I wa-want you) 'Cause I know you won't
(I-I wa-want you) 'Cause I know you won't

Maybe I've been lying to myself since last October
'Cause I saw you 'cross the campus and I wished it wasn't over
And I know you're late to class, but can I take back every single thing I said?
If we just had one more weekend, could we try it all again?

And nothing lasts forever
One more weekend in the city
Break up through the summer
Leave me all on my own
One more weekend can you kiss me?
Tell me that you miss me even if you won't

(I-I wa-want you) 'Cause I know you won't
(I-I wa-want you) 'Cause I know you won't
(I-I wa-want you) 'Cause I know you won't
