lyrics

It don't matter if you're staying home
It don't matter way you spend your lonesome time
Tap on your phone, or on the table
Ain't no way you're gonna shake it baby

Makes no difference if you walk on by me
Makes no difference if you even say hi to me
We can tell our heads what our bodies don't know
And say we're just gonna let the whole thing go

But I know it won't stop here
It won't stop here
So hold tight
And don't lie to yourself
My sweet lover

I just called to hear you say it
I know all the rules and I'm playing by them
I ain't worried
So I sit around the house
I watch the grass grow out
I ain't worried, ain't in no hurry baby

Now I could get a cool drink of water in the morning time
And stare down at that crack in the linoleum floor
And wonder, are your thoughts turning round like mine
But I don't, no I don't
Because it don't even matter that much
And every missing touch is like water on the wheel
Just like icing on a deal
Seems like every mistake I make
Just sends you running right back, calling my name

And I know it won't stop here
It won't stop here
So hold tight
And don't lie to yourself
My sweet lover
