Are you acting on a feeling? You call me up for twenty seconds saying nothing I know you're there 'cause I can kinda hear you breathing You're stacking sugar cubes and thinking 'bout me, babe Are you okay? I pulled a sickie to come see you on a weekday I wrote a song while you were finishing an essay I know you hurt because I hurt the same Now I can see a garden I can see a car in the driveway, yeah I can see a cat by the front gate I can see you reading on a cold day It's like music I can feel through the wall I wait for so long But I know that you're not waiting for me True love makes you strong So why does it have to feel so strange? Wait, look the other way 'Cause I might have some bad bad news for you, hey And I can't say it to your face What if you don't need me, babe? ♪ I remember when I saw you I was with Dan and you were sitting with your brother I spilled my drink and then you looked over your shoulder Me and my beer are going down the drain Now I can see a garden I can see the future in a new way I can see you swimming in a blue lake See your silhouette in a doorway Dreaming in colours I can't see when I wake Still I wait for so long When I know that you're not waiting for me True love makes you strong So why does it have to feel so strange? Wait, look the other way 'Cause I might have some bad bad news for you, hey And I can't say it to your face What if you don't need me, babe? I wait for so long But I know that you're not waiting for me True love makes you strong So why does it have to feel so strange? Wait, look the other way 'Cause I might have some bad bad news for you, hey And I can't say it to your face What if you don't need me, babe?
