Verse 1: I remember when we met for the first time Almost had a heart-attack when I looked into your eyes You had a smile that made me wanna die Not knowing that's what you had been wishing on the inside Wearing long sleeves to cover scars on your wrists You grabbed a razor when the world made you feel like sh** In that department I can only relate a little bit But I know that I cared & I tried to help it But you're an independent woman, you don't need no help You pick out your clothes & put ‘em on by yourself You take pictures with your friends & take trips to Philadelph Oh, and you took our relationship & put it on your shelf You like country music & I write down raps Remember how great we felt waking up from that nap? Remember we were texting all night & how I tried to win you back How about me? Do even remember that? And I've never said one bad word about you Actually, I haven't stopped thinkin' about you I just want to see you smile I could be your plain white tee & you could be my Delilah
Chorus (John Merwarth): If you come lay with me We can write a symphony You don't have to do it by yourself If you would be my baby girl Be the center of my world You & I won't need no help Verse 2: Come lay with me and let time float away I kiss you on the neck, and tell you I'll stay I remember when we followed each other that day You texted me a smile, I texted back winky face And now I can't walk down through your hometown Without feeling the same feelings that I once had around Come back to the guy that loved you up & down The guy that made smiles from all of your frowns I can't take this pain any longer I guess what didn't k** me, made YOU stronger I might just go crazy if that thought is wrong Because if you still loved me, I wouldn't need to write this song I'll cook you breakfast, and buy you new shoes Show you off to my friends or lay in bed, whichever you chose It's like you turned the page & kept the book open I'm not obsessed, I'm just heartbroken Chorus (x2)
