"Peaches" lyrics

(Check it once, now check it twice)

How are you so certain that giving up is for the best?
Bicycles and rivers and stars
I really thought we were gonna get there
But I was always packing my bags
You listing all the ways I was bad
Nah, you deserve someone who can love you
The way that I wish that I had

Waking up
Counting all the reasons I must let you go now
Even if I don't want to, I know I gotta learn
To love me the way I should have loved you better
You could've loved me better
Oh let me love you better
Waking up
Counting all the reasons I must let you go now
Even if I don't want to, I know I got to learn
To love me the way I should have loved you better
I should've loved you better

(Check it once, now check it twice)

You like a nice neat controlled emotion
You wanted something stable, you said
I was anxious, you avoided commotion
Hate to think what your friends have all said
See, I used to think that life's too short for self-control
But I've been coming around
'Cause I lost the best thing I ever had
It's time to do things differently now

Waking up
Counting all the reasons I must let you go now
Even if I don't want to, I know I gotta learn
To love me the way I should have loved you better
You could've loved me better
Oh let me love you better
Waking up
Counting all the reasons I must let you go now
Even if I don't want to, I know I got to learn
To love me the way I should have loved you better
I should've loved you better

No, I can't look at peaches now
Even less at nectarines
I just can't look at peaches now
Even less than nectarines

Waking up
Counting all the reasons I must let you go now
Even if I don't want to, I know I got to learn
To love me the way I should have loved you better
I should've loved you better
I should've loved you better
I should've loved you better

(Check it once, now check it twice)
(Check it once, now check it twice)
(One day I'm gonna get it right)
