lyrics

You are so good at keeping me at arm's length,
feeling like you're well worth the wait.
But wait.

Wait a minute.
I know you hate to get in it
but whenever we fight its about how I lose
not how you win it.
You stop every thought before I begin it
and I'm man enough to admit it.
It's not the heat of the fire that burns
its more how you spit it and you do.
You keep making plans because we planned to.
Why don't you just quit it?

Soft spoken secrets in the back of the Subaru.
The two of you were making plans, whispering, holding hands.
Trying hard to keep it in the back of the Chevy.
Why are you so cavalier?
This is heavy for a one night stand.
But on the other hand.

You are no good at timing the excuses you say,
at telling me you want to stay.
But say,

Say you didn't.
I know you hate to relive it
but every time we get this close it's always at your limit.
A little unorthodox but I'll permit it,
though I've had it up to here with it.
It's not the facts in a case that win it.
It's more how you spin it
and you do not falter.
It's the little things and they keep getting smaller.

Soft spoken secrets in the back of the Subaru.
The two of you were making plans, whispering, holding hands.
Trying hard to keep it in the back of the Chevy.
Why are you so cavalier?
This is heavy for a one night stand.
But on the other hand.

Soft spoken secrets in the back of the Subaru.
The two of you were making plans, whispering, holding hands.
Trying hard to keep it in the back of the Chevy.
Why are you so cavalier?
This is heavy for a one night stand.
But on the other hand.
Bona fide promises I just couldn't live up to.
Thoughts of you escaping me; self worth escaping you.
Trying hard to keep it in the back of your memory.
"Why are you so sad, my dear?"
This is exactly what you had planned.

Soft spoken secrets in the back of the Subaru.
Trying hard just to forget, just to forget about you.

Soft spoken secrets in the back of the Subaru.
The two of you were making plans, whispering, holding hands.
Trying hard to keep it in the back of the Chevy.
Why are you so cavalier?
This is heavy for a one night stand.
But on the other hand.
