Lyrics

You walked up to me

You approached me.

Smiled and said, hey you're awfully cute

You complimented me, expressing that I am cute.

I stuttered stumbled but finally went

I was nervous and hesitant, but eventually responded.

I do not compute

I find it challenging to understand or respond appropriately.

You said wake up silly

You reassured me, telling me it's not a big deal.

It's nothing really

You downplayed the situation, saying it's insignificant.

But what if I come too

I expressed concern about the possibility of being hurt.

I said I'd love to have you

I welcomed the idea of being with you.

How's this Friday

We discussed making plans for Friday, and I offered to cook for you.

I can make dinner for you

But my shadow follows closely

My insecurities or darker side closely follow me.

And I hope that you'll never see

I hope you won't notice my flaws or imperfections.

My habits are yours for the taking

I have certain habits that you might adopt.

But you'll never quite be her

Despite similarities, you won't fully replace someone from my past.


Pretty flowers

Beautiful moments after a certain time.

After hours

Enjoying time together while walking.

Walking home with you

We share pleasant experiences.

Whiskey sours and Ivory towers

Indulging in enjoyable moments, perhaps with some complexity.

It's just all so new

Everything feels new and exciting.

Flash tattoos

Memories of spontaneous decisions like getting tattoos.

This new bands debut

Debut of a new band, providing a great view of the experience.

Oh my what a view

Expressing awe at a beautiful scene.

I can't help but wonder

I ponder whether it's acceptable to let go for you.

Is it okay

---

If I let go for you

But my shadow follows closely

My insecurities or darker side continue to follow me closely.

And I hope that you'll never see

I hope you won't notice my flaws or imperfections.

My habits are yours for the taking

I have certain habits that you might adopt.

But you'll never quite be her

Despite similarities, you won't fully replace someone from my past.


Hindsight's always right

Looking back, it's clear what the right choices were.

But my oh my hearts sore

My heart is experiencing pain or regret.

I try my best just to forget

I try to forget how love used to be.

What love was like before

---

It's midnight but your smile is bright

Despite the late hour, your happiness is evident.

Getting snacks from the drug store

We engage in mundane activities together.

Your mini M&Ms bring back the memories

Small things, like mini M&Ms, trigger nostalgic memories.

I can't ignore

I cannot ignore the impact of these memories.


My shadow follows closely

My insecurities or darker side continue to follow me closely.

And I hope that you'll never see

I hope you won't notice my flaws or imperfections.

My habits are yours for the taking

I have certain habits that you might adopt.

But you'll never quite be her

Despite similarities, you won't fully replace someone from my past.
