lyrics

She sat on the couch
The one she gave to us
When she moved out
She looked so tired
As we talked
For an hour maybe less
He looked so sad
it was evident
He wanted her to stay
The love they share
is beautiful

I don’t want a repeat of the worst day of my life
On the car ride home I let the tears flow from my eye
I don’t want a repeat of the worst years of my life
When you were far away

She had left before
I walked her to
the airport
She had left before
I helped her move
her things
She had left before
Her new life went on
without me
She had left before
She’s leaving again

I don’t want a repeat of the worst day of my life
When she closed the door I let the tears flow from my eye
I don’t want a repeat of the worst years of my life
When you were far away

Let’s fake sick
And play Gameboy on the couch
And watch Japanese cartoons
All afternoon
Let’s drive around
We can sing and dance to
the only song we could agree on
Let’s go on a trip
Trap lizards in the mountains
Camp through thunderstorms
And pretend we’re on TV
Let’s forget
the troubles we both face

I don’t want a repeat of the worst day of my life
On the car ride home I let the tears flow from my eye
I don’t want a repeat of the worst years of my life
When you were far away
