The Promise

Well it should be made known that I've got time on my hands.
I know you're bored,
so let's go get some coffee.
We'll just keep talking 'till one of us starts to snore.
And I promise you that if you have my back,
then I'll make sure to always have yours.
Yeah I'll make sure to always have yours.
Life is like baseball, you got hit by a pitch this time,
But now at least you're sure
you can take your base.
Getting closer to home plate,
Maybe this time I'll actually score.
And I promise you that if you have my back,
then I'll make sure to always have yours.
Yeah I'll make sure to always have yours.
I hope we grow old together and we still hang out
Whether we're rich or we're still poor.
Truthfully, most people only know a part of me,
But you seem to know me more.
And I promise you that if you have my back,
then I'll make sure to always have yours.
Yeah I'll make sure to always have yours.

Head Over Heels

From Memphis to Colorado
She's been catching jealous eyes.
But their jealousy is pointless
cause she's mine, she's just the right size.
I'm not trying to be vulgar.
You just gotta understand
that when I have her in my arms
her head fits right under my chin.
With my girl, nothing matters.
With my girl, it's plain to see
that with my girl, I'm head over heels in love
and my girl she'll always be.
You might say I should be worried that she'll leave for someone else.
Me-oh-my, we're gonna be just fine.
We're getting frisky by ourselves.
Well that is not an innuendo unless you wanted it to be.
I can't see myself with anybody else.
With you honey, I am free.
With my girl, nothing matters.
With my girl, it's plain to see
that with my girl, I'm head over heels in love
and my girl she'll always be.
With my girl, nothing matters.
With my girl, why can't you see
that with my girl, I'm head over heels in love
and my girl she'll always be.

My thoughts here lately have been darker since we talked last.
I never know if you're eternally living in the past.
Interstate signs and 2AM lights hardly keep me awake.
I keep reaching for my phone; I still know that it'll never vibrate.
They say a lack of sleep can kill you.
But if that were true I would be in the ground by now.
I can't say that those thoughts have never crossed my mind.
But I'll keep them in a bottle underneath my bed.
I'll be damned if they take my life.
No you won't,
No you don't,
I don't think you hate me still.
No you won't,
No you don't,
I don't think you hate me.

Petty Theft

No I don't, do you
have a lighter? Cause I stole a cigarette from you.
You're an awful habit that I swear I'm quitting,
But I'm begging you, please don't quit me.
Yeah, I'm begging you, please don't quit me.
I never wanted to feel this way.
I just figured that by now I would have grown and
things could have changed.
Maybe that's naive of me.
So darling blow me a kiss goodbye,
cause my head is getting foggy.
I might die before I see you again and decide
that maybe I can live without your cigarettes.
Maybe I'll just forget everything you said,
and maybe I can apologize for this petty theft.
