in AlbumRed

Took a deep breath in the mirror

He didn't like it when I wore high heels

But I do

Turned the lock and put my headphones on

He always said he didn't get this song

But I do, I do

Walked in expecting you'd be late

But you got here early and you stand and wave

I walk to you

You pull my chair out and help me in

And you don't know how nice that is

But I do

And you throw your head back laughing like a little kid

I think it's strange that you think I'm funny cause he never did

I've been spending the last 8 months

Thinking all love ever does is break and burn and end

But on a Wednesday in a cafe, I watched it begin again

He said he never met one girl

Who had as many James Taylor records as you

But I do

We tell stories and you don't know why

I'm coming off a little shy

But I do

But you throw your head back laughing like a little kid

I think it's strange that you think I'm funny cause he never did

I've been spending the last 8 months

Thinking all love ever does is break and burn and end

But on a Wednesday in a cafe, I watched it begin again

And we walked down the block to my car and I almost brought him up

But you start to talk about the movies that your family watches

Every single Christmas and I want to talk about that

And for the first time, what's past is past

Cause you throw your head back laughing like a little kid

I think it's strange that you think I'm funny cause he never did

I've been spending the last 8 months

Thinking all love ever does is break and burn and end

But on a Wednesday in a cafe, I watched it begin again
