Favorite Color

Where did you go to school? What's your favorite food? Where do you spend your time on the weekends? What's your favorite song? Do your parents get along? I'm bored to death, can't he see it? I'm twisting my thumbs as he sips from his cup Could have better conversation with my ceiling He's grabbing my knee as I'm trying to leave That's the first time and last time I'll see him I remember it all too well Thinking I've never been closer to hell 'til I met you I thought that I walked into Heaven's room Don't wanna check out soon Step back and take a good look at everything we have I don't think it gets any better than that If you let go, don't know if I'll recover I can't take another I can't, can't learn somebody else all over again Don't want another, "Hey, you should meet my friend" 'Cause there's no more I'm sure to discover I can't take another, "What's your favorite color?" We talk through the night, now I can read your mind Tell me things that you always held secret And I'll hold 'em close How could I ever go back to shallow when I know you the deepest? Step back and take a good look at everything we have I don't think it gets any better than that If you let go, don't know if I'll recover I can't take another I can't, can't learn somebody else all over again Don't want another, "Hey, you should meet my friend" 'Cause there's no more I'm sure to discover I can't take another, "What's your favorite color?" Oh, no, no I can't take another, no Mm-mm Let's work this out, don't leave me blue 'Cause I'm bleeding red when I'm without you You're my brown-eyed boy, I'm your rose perfume When you're near me, the grass grows greener too And a white picket fence with a bayside view Under the yellow sun, a summer afternoon Drivin' your old gray car in the middle of June I'll never find you again in someone new
