Lyrics: We drank and I convinced you that the wildfire smog was the Northern Lights Lately I’ve been looking at you harder, just taking you in At the callous on your fingers from the handbrake grips on your junkyard bike And your boots so filled with water I mean, soaking wet
But you could punch me in the gut And it wouldn't hurt like watching You go smaller on the backroad And I never ask for much But I hope that Logan crumbles and gets hit by a tornado
Oh I, can’t keep on starting over Sleeping in a bed half empty Daydreamin’ All love, must leave, oh but search for it I will Honey, tell me, are you good at stayin’ still Are you good at stayin’ still Oh well will you up and leave Or will you be there in the morning
I always hated the sunlight at 3 pm Where it’s too soon to quit thinking But too late to change anything I’m racking my brain for the one line That would change your mind Showing you plane crashes online It couldn’t hurt to try
But the Charles meets the sun And the Harvard track team runs, past my truck, stuck on Storrow And I never ask for much But I hope that Logan crumbles, and gets hit by a tornado
'Cause I can’t keep on starting over Sleeping in a bed half empty Daydreamin’ All love, must leave, oh but search for it I will Honey, tell me, are you good at stayin’ still Honey, tell me, are you good at stayin’ still Are you good at stayin’ still
Put in love, put in hours, put in ceremony As it was, how you were, what was there before me Nevermind, nevermind, oh forget about it I’ll be good, I’ll be fine, I can laugh about it
I try, to keep, on starting over Sleeping in a bed half empty Daydreamin’ All love, must leave, oh but search for it I will Honey, tell me, are you good at stayin’ still Are you good at stayin’ still Are you good at stayin’ still Oh well will you up and leave Or will you be there in the morning
