Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You could come around once a year
Like a Christmas ghost
Or hold me down like an anchor, baby
But you can't do both
I can't be your father figure
But I could be your friend
Watch me burn my candle crazy
At both ends
[Verse 2]
Nothing's gonna change here anytime soon
Catching fish in the morning
Get drunk before noon
Watching little brown bubbles floating in the spoon
Could be soakin' in a warm bath
Or back in the womb
Anytime, anytime soon
[Verse 3]
Used to want to be an astronaut
But I was just a kid
Spent my days in a batting cage
Where a robot pitched
Once you were my blushing bride
I was your nervous groom
But now we're just more comfortable
Sleepin' in separate rooms, oh
[Verse 4]
Nothing's gonna change here anytime soon
Make a bed full of roses
Hope that they bloom
I don't know if it's safe, but I just assume
I won't play in the majors
Or walk on the moon
Not anytime, anytime soon
[Verse 5]
Spin me a tornado, honey
Cry me a monsoon
Let's just get through the holidays
And the terrible twos
Christmas has passed
It's just yellow snow
Sometimes you gotta hear something that you already know
[Verse 6]
Nothing's gonna change here anytime soon
When it's all unpredictable
I can still count on you
Lookin' for the mailbox with the red balloons
I'll be late to the party
And I have an excuse
'Cause no one likes
Breaking bad news
It's nothing I'm wanting to do
Not anytime, anytime soon
