[Intro]

I believe in something more

Than picket fences, hardwood floors

I don't think I'm what you need

I'll stay the night if you let me

[Verse 1]

I'm not scared and I'm not sad

I'm always used to be being mad

'Cause when the best ain't here to stay

It's up to me to walk away

[Chorus]

Always happy to be sad

And I'm disappointed to be glad

It's the simple things that make me smile

And I think that I could stay for a while

I'm like you, but darker blue

Because I'm not used to “I love you's"

I'm not one to understand, so I always turn up secondhand

[Verse 2]

Lazy lovers wear me out

'Cause all they want to talk about

Is how I've never been in love

The girls that I'm still dreaming of, like you

[Chorus]

Always happy to be sad

And I'm disappointed to be glad

It's the simple things that make me smile

And I think that I could stay for a while

I'm like you, but darker blue

Because I'm not used to “I love you's"

I'm not one to understand, so I always turn up secondhand

[Post-Chorus]

California broke me for ya

[Bridge]

Always happy to be sad

And I'm disappointed to be glad

It's the simple things that make me smile

And I tell myself I'm not in denial

[Chorus]

Always happy to be sad

And I'm disappointed to be glad

It's the simple things that make me smile

And I think that I could stay for a while

I'm like you, but darker blue

Because I'm not used to “I love you's"

I'm not one to understand, so I always turn up secondhand

[Outro]

I believe in something more

Than picket fences, hardwood floors

I don't think I'm what you need

I'll stay the night if you let me
