Oh you make me feel better, you do
In Tompkins Square on your sweater it's true
I wish we could do this together, us two
But I'm glad you're doing better, I'm happy for you (I swear)
I would take it back if I could
To the days when we knew only half what we should
Now I can see you were always a few steps ahead
Now I know what I didn't, guess that's all we get
Someone take me back to when we were kids
Say it won't be so bad to live with it
I'm sorry, I never really got it
Don't know how to stop it, no, no
Love is painful and easily confused
You're making mistakes just to offer the muse
All this time that you tried not to lose
But you always do (I always let it go)
I'll take the pain
If it takes me somewhere better, better, oh
You make feel sane
When I'm sick of myself and so is everyone else
Won't you take me back to when we were kids
Say it won't be so bad to live with it
I'm sorry, I never really got it
Don't know how to stop it, no, no
