[Verse 1]

I keep my windows open, front door's broken, I lost my keys

I'm passed out on my futon, gave back your DVDs

It's been so long, but you're embedded to my thoughts

And all the songbirds sing sad songs

Oh, how I treated you so wrong?

I stay up all night long


[Chorus]

I see you on the TV

You're in my melatonin dreams

I put my health beneath me

But it's frustrating that we weren't meant to be

I'm wasted on the sofa

Watching time fly, wearing loafers on my feet

Restless 'cause I'm lost without you

Kinda awkward 'cause we live on the same street


[Post-Chorus]

You're in my melatonin dreams

My eyes can't read what's in between

'Cause it's been all just make-believe

And all I see are fantasies

'Cause I've been sippin' on kava tea

(Sippin' on kava tea)

(But it's all just make-believe)


[Verse 2]

Let's just say goodbye to the good times

Once and for all, just let them go home

I know they still give you butterflies

I'm stuck in an awful state of mind

Let it be known that I'm a lone soul

Lost from a romantic paradise


[Chorus]

I see you on the TV

You're in my melatonin dreams

I put my health beneath me

But it's frustrating that we weren't meant to be

I'm wasted on the sofa

Watching time fly, wearing loafers on my feet

Restless 'cause I'm lost without you

Kinda awkward 'cause we live on the same street


[Post-Chorus]

You're in my melatonin dreams

My eyes can't read what's in between

'Cause it's been all just make-believe

And all I see are fantasies

'Cause I've been sipping on kava tea


[Refrain]

Close your eyes, dance with me

Je suis rempli de tristesse je suis troublé

Weren't meant to be

But it's okay, I feel your pain temporarily

Close your eyes, dance with me

Je suis rempli de tristesse je suis troublé

Weren't meant to be

But it's okay, I feel your pain temporarily


[Bridge]

And I thought we could be more than just friends

But I can understand your situation

I felt like you should know, though, since we're such good friends

I guess I'll just wait until you feel okay enough to see me like I see you

But until then, I can just be your guy best friend


[Chorus]

I see you on the TV

You're in my melatonin dreams

I put my health beneath me

But it's frustratin' that we weren't meant to be

I'm wasted on the sofa

Watchin' time fly, wearin' loafers on my feet

Restless 'cause I'm lost without you

Kinda awkward 'cause we live on the same street


[Refrain]

Close your eyes, dance with me

Je suis rempli de tristesse je suis troublé (You're in my melatonin dreams)

Weren't meant to be

But it's okay, I feel your pain temporarily (My eyes can't read what's in between)

Close your eyes, dance with me

Je suis rempli de tristesse je suis troublé ('Cause it's been all just make-believe)

Weren't meant to be (And all I see are fantasies)

But it's okay, I feel your pain temporarily
