"You Owe Me" lyrics

"You Owe Me"

Bet you forget, we went to see my mother
Said you were allergic to her cats
Whenever we would visit she would clean the place for hours
You never thanked her for that

You just had me acting like you'd be worth the wait
But I don't think you ever tried to know me
The more I linger on it, the more it turns to hate
Even if time isn't money, you owe me

Bet you forget that time on Coney Island
When you broke my heart by surprise
And I had to get my stuff out of your parents' basement
Your father wouldn't even meet my eyes

You just had me acting like you'd be worth the wait
But I don't think you ever tried to know me
The more I linger on it, the more it turns to hate
Even if time isn't money, you owe me

All the while you were acting like some departed saint
And at the time I never even noticed
Don't know why I thought that you'd be worth the wait
Even if time isn't money, you owe me
Our time was never money, but you owe me
