lyrics

i'm not as they'd have you believe
i'd like to think i have an honest heart
but i need to fix myself so please
will you take me back into your arms
and in your arms i'm floated away
in your arms i'm melted away

pretty girl with a sunburn bad
she's a looker and she's got me had
come on phone make my bones ring
give me distraction just do the right thing
oh when i need you need you here by my side
you just go off and you run and you hide
oh when i need you need you and you're not there
though when you needed me i never cared

so in her arms i floated away
but in her arms i wanted to stay

i've got to find a way to make her see
that i think that she's the one for me
but i'm so scared, so scared of fucking it up
so many failures i've learned that what goes down won't come up
oh when i see you see you and you're laying there
there's nothing you could do or say to make me feel prepared
yeah when i see you see you and you're lookin at me
and then i wake up i cursre the gods it's not fair

so in her arms i withered away
yeah in her arms i faded away

and she said
i don't want you to get the wrong idea
there's nothing between you and me
i don't want you to get the wrong idea
there's nothing between you and me

and it hurts, god it hurts so bad!
why do we like to make each other feel so sad
but in the end i guess that's how it has to be done
something always has to come and ruin my fun
do you feel envy can you feel your beauty
because you know that i feel that you're the envoy of beauty
and you may not be mine but hey at least i've got this song
and a few more yeah i still think i've got a few more in me yeah yeah

do you believe in magic
do you believe in cliche
do you believe in deja vu
she laughed as she told me
"oh i think you said that yesterday!"
guess cheesy pick-up lines would never work on you,
you're too smart for that
all of my bullshit? all of my drama?
i guess it's all just old hat, yeah

let's just sit back and enjoy this song
yeah let's just sit back and watch the stars
let's just sit back and enjoy this song
yeah let's just sit back and watch the stars
let's just sit back and enjoy this song
yeah let's just sit back and watch the stars
let's just sit back and enjoy this song
yeah yeah! yeah yeah, yeah

give me a reason to trust you again.
