[Verse 1]
I don't wanna be here and the door won't let me in
I keep on calling but nobody's answering
I turn around to hear a "hey there how ya been"
From a smile from on a face I didn't know meant anything
[Pre-Chorus]
So here I go around again
Knowing damn well how this ends
But I like to let myself pretend
That this time will be different
[Chorus]
I know we don't know each other well
I know you're dating someone else
And live a thousand miles away
But still I like to entertain
The thought I'm more than just bad news
And that there's something I could do
So that one day you could say
That you might feel the same
[Verse 2]
Chance the silence, and hope I make you laugh
Run calculations on if I should take it back
I've found a lot to fear in getting back on track
And now I’m constantly reminded feeling nothing's all that lasts
[Chorus]
I know we don't know each other well
I know you're dating someone else
And live a thousand miles away
But still I like to entertain
The thought I'm more than just bad news
And that there's something I could do
So that one day you could say
That you might feel the same
[Bridge]
Well here I go around again
Knowing damn well how this ends
But I like to let myself pretend
That this time will be different because
[Chorus]
I know we don't know each other well
I know you're dating someone else
And live a thousand miles away
But still I like to entertain
The thought I'm more than just bad news
And that there's something I could do
So that one day you could say
Hey J, it’s gonna be okay
