lyrics

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.
