Less Than Lovers

(album: This Kind Of Thing Doesn't Last - 2022)

All I can do is look at your face
It's always been you
The one I can never replace
I can't touch you so I remember my place
I'll take some time for my mind to escape

I think I fell for the wrong person
But we fit so well
Why is it so uncertain?
Did I misunderstand?
Was it just for the summer?
To me, we're more than friends
But to you, we're less than lovers

All you can do is look at my face
You'll sit there and stare at the floor
Always say your name when she breathes
No, don't you dare look at me that way
You're gonna make me want to stay

Yeah, I think I fell for the wrong person
'Cause I can never tell if you see me as a burden
Did I not meet your demands?
Do our colors not complement each other?
To me, we're more than friends
But to you, we're less than lovers

I kept your favorite book
The one that your annotations overtook
'Cause I thought your handwriting
Was the prettiest thing I've ever seen
I sat in that waiting room
Everything I ever did was all for you
'Cause I thought maybe you'd think
I was the prettiest thing you've ever seen
You've seen
Oh, you've seen

I never understand what I mean to you
And I'll never know why
All this time
It had to be you
