"Houseplant" lyrics

I'm gonna hurt you despite my intent
You're gonna hurt me without even trying
It just slipped out wait I didn't mean it
Trust me

I'm gonna want you when you want to rest
You're gonna want me when my my head is a mess
It's no big deal not much more can be said
Maybe next week

Love is like a houseplant
In order to keep it you must tend to it
Just feed it and treat it with some kindness
Maybe it's still got some life left in it

I'll be a boy when you need a man
You'll be a miss when I I'm needing a ma'am
We're both just looking for each other's hand
Aren't we?

There is no shortage of alternate paths
Beautiful people who could be a match
But where is the end when you're looking like that
Eternity?

Love is like a houseplant
In order to keep it you must tend to it
Just feed it and treat it with some kindness
Maybe it's still got some life left in it
