Verse 1
Took A Deep Breath In The Mirror
He Didn't Like It When I Wore High Heels, But I Do
Turned The Lock And Put My Headphones On
He Always Said He Didn't Get This Song But I Do, I Do
Verse 2
Walked In Expecting You'd Be Late
But You Got Here Early And You Stand And Wait And I Walk To You
You Pulled My Chair Out And Helped Me
And You Don't Know How Nice That Is, But I Do
Chorus
And You Throw Your Head Back Laughing Like A Little Kid
I Think It's Strange That You Think I'm Funny 'Cause He Never Did
I've Been Spending The Last 8 Months
Thinking All Love Ever Does Is Break And Burn And End
But On A Wednesday In A Cafe I Watched It Begin Again
Verse 3
You Said You Never Met One Girl
Who Has As Many James Taylor Records As You, But I Do
We Tell Stories And You Don't Know Why
I'm Coming Off A Little Shy, But I Do
Chorus
But You Throw Your Head Back Laughing Like A Little Kid
I Think It's Strange That You Think I'm Funny 'Cause He Never Did
I've Been Spending The Last 8 Months
Thinking All Love Ever Does Is Break And Burn And End
But On A Wednesday In A Cafe I Watched It Begin Again
Bridge
And We Walk Down The Block To My Car
And I Almost Brought Him Up
But You Start To Talk About The Movies
That Your Family Watches Every Single Christmas
And I Won't Talk About That For The First Time
What's Past Is Past
Chorus
You Throw Your Head Back Laughing Like A Little Kid
I Think It's Strange That You Think I'm Funny 'Cause He Never Did
I've Been Spending The Last 8 Months
Thinking All Love Ever Does Is Break And Burn And End
But On A Wednesday In A Cafe I Watched It Begin Again
