This song was originally written as a fictional story, and it still is, however as time went on, we realized we were writing about ourselves.
lyrics
She goes to bed sad enough
He stays up late just down on his luck
She watches Sleepless in Seattle more than once
He watches the game even though he hates sports
She walks to class, head down low
He sits in class propped up by his elbow
She stands in the rain, locked her keys in the car
He stays after late cause he's failing so far.
If I told you everything was okay would you still believe me?
If I told you everything was okay would you be on your way
Back home so I could be alone for a couple of hours?
I think that's all we need, just a couple of hours.
She works late for less than minimum wage
He smokes a pack almost every other day
She falls asleep as soon as she gets home
He sits in a park on a bench, all alone
She freaks out about her weight
He freaks out cause his girl's on a date
And they're all alone.
If I told you everything was okay would you still believe me?
If I told you everything was okay would you be on your way
Back home so I could be alone for a couple of hours?
I think that's all we need, just a couple of hours.
But in the end, she's okay, and he's alright.
They'll never feel great, but that's just life.
But in the end, she's okay, and he's alright.
If I told you everything was okay would you still believe me?
If I told you everything was okay would you be on your way
Back home so I could be alone for a couple of hours?
I think that's all we need, just a couple of hours.
If I told you everything was okay would you still believe me?
If I told you everything was okay would you be on your way
Back home so I could be alone for a couple of hours?
I think that's all we need, just a couple of hours.
