Romantic

et a friend I last saw ten months ago

we talked about the past and the weather

told me that the city they moved to is getting colder

saw your sister landed a well-paid job

I'm happy that she's doing better

Isn't it weird how we're all getting older?

And I know it's a cliche

but it's a hard time of the year

let's just grab another beer

and leave our problems here

Isn't it romantic

being stuck in that apartment

can't afford to be who you wanted

but I know you still got it

jumping over turnstiles

working customer service and serving up fake smiles

you have to laugh about it

isn't it romantic?

and you told me about your mattress on the floor

laying awake at night

listening to fights and traffic through the walls

And all that I could say was

Isn't it romantic

being stuck in that apartment

can't afford to be who you wanted

but I know you still got it

jumping over turnstiles

working customer service and serving up fake smiles

you have to laugh about it

isn't it romantic?

isn't it romantic

isn't it romantic

isn't it romantic

isn't it romantic

you have to laugh about it

isn't it romantic?
