I know you're looking through me
Blow past into the front door
But when you're coming to me
I pretend there's something more
And still I try
I don't know what I am supposed to do
We're friends or we're nothing
I know, I know you told me
But how could there not be something on the other side?
How could there not be?
You've been looking around for someone every other time
How could you not see me?
How could there not be something worth trying to lose?
Taking a chance on the other side with you
Slow walk in like a movie
To this backyard party at dawn
And now you're coming to me
His jacket barely hanging on
I know I know, it's not the timing
If I was on a different set of rules
I'd be leaving here with you
But how could there not be something on the other side?
How could there not be?
You've been looking around for someone every other time
How could you not see me?
How could there not be something worth trying to lose?
Taking a chance on the other side with you
I know I say this every time
Trust me, I've been working on that line
Conversations we've been through
But the point is never lost on you
And it feels like jumping fences trying to get you to come over
To the other side
But how could there not be something on the other side?
How could there not be?
You've been looking around for someone every other time
How could you not see me?
How could there not be something worth trying to lose?
Taking a chance on the other side
Taking a chance on the other side
Taking a chance on the other side with you
