Lyrics

I can tell that you're not home

I sense that you are not present at home.

You're eyes can tell me that alone

Your eyes convey this solitude to me without words.

I drove all the way from

I traveled all the way from Bakersfield to be by your side.

Bakersfield to be with you

I endured being with your father just to have the chance to be with you.

I put up with your father just

I tolerated the company of your father for the sake of being with you.

So I could be with you


You left the keys in my car

You left the keys in my car, and the light on.

You also left the light on

Despite this, I don't make you feel guilty; I simply kiss your forehead.

But I don't make you feel bad

I just kiss your forehead

-

I would never want to change a thing

I wouldn't want to change anything about our experiences.

I would do it all over again

I would willingly go through it all again.

You for sure rocked my world, sexy, hipster

You definitely had a significant impact on my life; you were attractive, trendy, a "tumblr girl" I pursued.

"tumblr girl" i used to take Olive

I took risks (possibly drugs) just to hear you express that my Olive skin was sufficient for you.

(st) just to hear you say my

Olive skin was all you needed

-

The skin upon my knees burned on the carpet

Physical discomfort (burned knees) resulted from passionate moments on the carpet.

We argue like your last name is long overdue

We argue intensely, as if resolving your last name is long overdue.

I used to be obsessed with

I used to be fixated on always being "right."

Making sure I'm always "right"

But ever since I met you

However, since meeting you, my focus shifted to making things morally "right."

I just wanna make things "right"


You called and asked if I was

You inquired if I was in the company of girls you disapprove of.

With some girls you don't like

I lied and said they're not here

I lied, claiming they are not present, and justified it with having only consumed one beer.

And I've just had one beer

I always wanted you to do things "right"

I always wished for you to act morally "right."

But here I am and I ain't doing "right"

Regrettably, I find myself not living up to that standard.


I hope you never want a thing to change

I hope you never desire any changes in our relationship.

'Cause I would do it all over again

As I would willingly go through it all again.


You can tell that I'm not home

You can perceive that I am absent from home.

My eyes can tell you that alone

You drove all the way from LA

You traveled all the way from LA just to be with me.

Just to be with me

You put up with my bullshit just

You endured my shortcomings just to be with me.

So you could be with me
