Linger

You said you loved me from the first second

I said, "Honey, that's impossible"

My hair was short, yours was always how it is

Out of place, and I still had my braces on

You laughed it off

Said, "It didn't look that bad"

I disagreed, and you kissed my neck

I forgot your number, your face, and your friends

Strange how fast I knew you, then didn't again

I've done everything that I can to forget

Somehow, you still linger even after you left

Somehow, you still linger

You took me back to your apartment

You shared a bunk bed with your brother

Turned on the TV, but we made out through the whole thing

Now, I can't watch that show anymore

Hailed for a cab

You said, "Call me when you're home"

So I did, and we talked all night

I forgot your number, your face, and your friends

Strange how fast I knew you, then didn't again

I've done everything that I can to forget

Somehow, you still linger even after you left

And I hate to think that you don't remember

All the little things that I do, but why would you?

And I hate that I bring you up in conversation

Like you're there to come home to, I might miss you

Oh, you linger

Somehow, you still linger

I forgot your number, your face, and your friends

Strange how fast I knew you, then didn't again

I've done everything that I can to forget

Somehow, you still linger even after you left

Somehow, you still linger

Somehow, you still linger

Somehow, you still linger

Somehow, you still linger
