Are you acting on a feeling?
You call me up for twenty seconds saying nothing
I know you're there 'cause I can kinda hear you breathing
You're stacking sugar cubes and thinking 'bout me, babe
Are you okay?
I pulled a sickie to come see you on a weekday
I wrote a song while you were finishing an essay
I know you hurt because I hurt the same
Now I can see a garden
I can see a car in the driveway, yeah
I can see a cat by the front gate
I can see you reading on a cold day
It's like music I can feel through the wall
I wait for so long
But I know that you're not waiting for me
True love makes you strong
So why does it have to feel so strange?
Wait, look the other way
'Cause I might have some bad bad news for you, hey
And I can't say it to your face
What if you don't need me, babe?
♪
I remember when I saw you
I was with Dan and you were sitting with your brother
I spilled my drink and then you looked over your shoulder
Me and my beer are going down the drain
Now I can see a garden
I can see the future in a new way
I can see you swimming in a blue lake
See your silhouette in a doorway
Dreaming in colours I can't see when I wake
Still I wait for so long
When I know that you're not waiting for me
True love makes you strong
So why does it have to feel so strange?
Wait, look the other way
'Cause I might have some bad bad news for you, hey
And I can't say it to your face
What if you don't need me, babe?
I wait for so long
But I know that you're not waiting for me
True love makes you strong
So why does it have to feel so strange?
Wait, look the other way
'Cause I might have some bad bad news for you, hey
And I can't say it to your face
What if you don't need me, babe?
