Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's a hesitancy to our thing
We're a playin' card deck, missin' a king
And it takes somethin' out of me to be close to you
But I won't rule it out yet, unless you want me to
Probably see you on Wednesday, anyway
[Verse 2]
In a car with the dashboard lit
I swear to god, it's electric shit
A sudden heat piercin' the dark
I reach over, you put it in park
I will take you while I have you
[Verse 3]
And I'm surprised to be here
But I don't mind at all
I'm a balladeer
I can take the fall
[Verse 4]
There's an ache inside my head
And it's you on the timpani, knockin' 'em dead
It's a dazzling thing
Your give-in grin
Leftover Pad Thai stuck on your chin
I just like gettin' to know you
[Verse 5]
At what point in the chronology
Do I make room for you, do you get real for me?
Specks of toothpaste on the bathroom mirror
Fixatin' or runnin' out of here
I don't need you to be my counselor
[Verse 6]
And I'm surprised to be here
But I don't mind at all
I'm a balladeer
I can take the fall
[Verse 7]
And I'm surprised to be here
But I don't mind at all
I'm a balladeer
I can take the fall
