I'm just like your friends.
I sit solid until the timing's bad and then I take my bow and leave.
I'm so loyal, I'm so loyal, trust me please.
See, nothing's new when you've got no limits and you can test your keyboard's strength to talk you through the rough nights, the dead ends, the fist fights, and all your broken teeth.
See, every model has a weakness and every child has a spot for toys, so if we take the two and we mix them through she'll have the dead-on logic for boys.
And I'm trying to keep you in line, but the city's saying "oh darling, you're mine".
And your smile says you've got it together but your eyes are telling me it's not true.
So every weekend when you're living singing "life is short"
You better think again 'cause growing up's the longest haul, I don't think that i will.
So when the lights go out you better crack the door, everyone's waiting singing "ay bay bay! young love is fleeting".
And I'm trying to keep you in line, but the city's saying "oh darling you're mine".
And you're words say you've got it together now, but you think that love is just a pretty lie. so go ahead and make your move and shake it up and make it feel like love.
And when he's telling you you're pretty, so so pretty keep his eyes above. apologies and empty pickup lines that turn on dimes,
He's got so much, baby don't let it work, you know it never never works, except what he said was...

. . .


So if you just ask, you know that I'll stay here
To keep you warm when Midwest winter comes
If that's what you need, I think that I'd suffice, dear
I'm hoping you can take my heart and mold it into something pure and true

Oh, I see it in the look in your eyes like it's not over
Oh, the way that it sways and swells like ashes in the sky

This will fall in place, this will fall in place
But I don't wanna miss one day of your eyes and your smile
And everything else that I love, that I love
So say you need me all the same, you need me all the same and you don't wanna see me go
I know it's gonna break your heart that I'm the same, but it's fine, we'll be fine
We've got

You're faking me out when we were just kids, dear
The hallway where I held your hand's still there
The set and the sea is blue as fake eyes and sweet with melodies
The Florida coast line, we chased the sunrise
I'm hoping not to get to you in time
I love the pacific, I couldn't tell you how they're different but they're here and they're now so keep your ears to the ground
Oh, you got me all broke up over second chances
Oh, I thought that it was cool how you would play it when you're out and dancin'

This will fall in place, this will fall in place
But I don't wanna miss one day of your eyes and your smile
And everything else that I love, that I love
So say you need me all the same, you need me all the same and you don't wanna see me go
I know it's gonna break your heart that I'm the same but it's fine, we'll be fine
We've got heart

We're alive
Could you ask for anything more?
We're alive
Oh oh oh oh
Don't stop, don't stop dancin' till forever
Don't stop, don't stop dancin' till forever
Don't stop, don't stop dancin' till forever

I wrote you songs a hundred times
I wrote them so you'd know that I was in love
I'm saying something about the stars and the girls
Oh how they don't know, you know I'll never know

I thought I made it so obvious,
Obviously I did not
Their flashy photos and their eyes,
They make me nervous,
And write in marker on their thighs,
She liked it better that way

You never have a thing to fear because
K-A-T-E-L-Y-N,
You know I'm with you 'till the end,
You know that I love you,
I will love you forever

So let's just throw it away and leave this town today
We'll run to the west coast to live in Seattle
I'm singing circles with cellular motivation
I was searching locations for space stations but I caught my own star

I thought i made it so obvious,
Obviously I did not
You say I'm dear to you, is that true?
I've got a hundred other hearts that add up to my love for you

White sunglasses, throw up peace signs,
You make me nervous,
Few clothes with brightly colored lines,
She liked it better that way

You never have a thing to fear because
I-L-O-V-E-Y-O-U my dear!
Oh, I'm with you 'till the end,
You know that I love you,
I will love you for always

But keep this in your mind
I will run away, then we can run away,
And I will keep you right here, I'll keep you right here
If you ran away, I'd start the search today,
'Cause you know that i need you
Darling I need you
Oh today, what do you say?

Someday we'll have our own life,
But we've got some growing up to do
That makes me nervous,
I wish it wasn't that way

You never have a thing to fear because
K-A-T-E-L-Y-N,
You know I'm with you 'till the end,
I swear that I love you
I will love you forever

. . .


And one day the world's gonna be alright
And there will be no pain
Shut the ICU down tonight
'Cause everyone is safe
And I will overlook this operation by your side

'Cause we're too young, we're still kids
We're too young, we're still kids

I see your hearts get bigger when you lose your friends
And everyone's around you, saying that it's not the end
It's not the end

But you cried so hard
And I watched you grow so strong
And I made you laugh in my arms
And your tear-stained shirt, you felt the snowflakes on your back

And you stood so proud
You had me wishing, wanting, begging for some words from you
And you smiled to the crowd
It's enough for now

'Cause we're too young, we're still kids
We're too young, we're still kids

Take a break from the mask
You've done enough today
I saw you smiling like it's all OK
And it will be soon

This is a song for the boys and the girls I never met
And all my friends that I have had and I have kept
So get me down, down for the count
'Cause we are all the same, we're all the same

It's my job to keep you strong, I do it 'cause I'm supposed to
It's my job to keep you strong, I do it 'cause I like to
It's my job to keep you strong, I do it 'cause I'm told to
It's my job to keep you strong, I do it 'cause I love you
I do it 'cause I love you
I do it 'cause I love you
I do it 'cause I love you

On that day, we will be in charge
The weather's always bright and 68 degrees
