Let me briefly state things for which I am thankful
My father my mother my family et cetera
The fact that there's water on top of this planet
The opportunity for me to walk in it
Since it's a new year, thanks for life in general
And the ability to take it if I want to
Finally I confess to my closest acquaintance
A.K.A. someone who thinks they know who this boy is
And I wish that they do
So I could stay
With them
Did I tell you I don't think this will work out
That I love you but I'm wanting something else
Something close to me that I cannot forget
Something far away that I'd like to admit...
I'd like to end it with the music cliche
Say in a phone call that it's not you it's me
Then I could hang up and just put you away
In some music box with the sweet song it plays
Since it's a holiday I'll leave you alone
Dial six numbers and then hang up the phone
A good excuse for me to my postpone
Because you can't be hurt by what you don't know
Oh, and I wish
That you could be
So it would stop
Me from asking
But lend me your ear dear
Did I tell you I don't think this will work out
That I love you but I'm wanting something else
Something close to me that I cannot forgive
Something far away that I'd like to admit
Admit
Let me tell you that you don't need to worry now
Did I tell you I don't think this'll work out
That I love you but I'm wanting something else
Something close to me that I cannot forgive
Something far away that I'd like to admit
Admit
Admit
