about

Written by Ayden Elworthy
Originally for the musical "You Smile"!

lyrics

I haven’t called you in two weeks
But your number is still on my speed dial
I haven’t driven past your house in two weeks at least not intentionally
And I don’t know how to do quadratic functions
I got a "D" on the test

I blame you(me)

You said you would help me
You didn’t help me
And now you’re gone

I don’t know what kind of food I eat
I don’t know how many hours I should sleep
I don’t know what kind of man I am

But I know how
Your sweater smells
Smells like home to me

I know how you know
I know you
I know you

I know the kinds of people you’d like to meet
I know you like your coffee with just a little cream
I know you like that one movie with Tom Hanks. The one where he's on an Island? "Cast Away"?
And I know you
And I know me
We should have
We deserve
Better Things
Better Things
Better Things
Better Things
