"Only Child" lyrics
"Only Child"
On my shoulder
As we laid awake
And you always love a smoke by eight
'Cause baby don't mind
Gets never colder
Than when the daylight breaks
Do you now regret the bed we made?
Does it cross your mind?
Well, baby, does it cross your mind?
I did not intend to slow you down, mmm
Even hoped that we would have spoke by now
I was acting like an only child
What takes forever
Is a lesson learned
I have nothing to show for the medals I've earned
And maybe I mind
'Cause no one's ever
Seen me traipsing in
I've been hiding from all the places I've been
And sore from trying
And acting like an only child
But I did not intend to slow you down, mmm
Even though I'd hoped we'd have spoke by now
Maybe we were only lying
Heaven's closing
They're still pouring drinks
And of all those crazy ways you think
I love you lying
But I can't reason
With the past we face
I'm sorry for the mess we made
And if you want, we'll pick through my mistakes
You'll see me crying
But maybe we could put it all behind
I did not intend to force your hand, oh
Even though we swore we'd understand
Maybe we'll be always trying
We'll be always trying

Toss a rock and you break a window
Toss a feather up and watch the wind blow

I'm going downtown just to tie one on

I don't have a need to speak

To write a fancy story

To find what we’ve been holding
