[Verse 1]

I know you're probably sick of always sorting me out

It's like I've always got the taste of orange nails in my mouth

I know you're probably exhausted 'cause I haven't slept a wink in a week

Your father doesn't like me 'cause I'm not into sports

And your mother won't approve because I'm not of the cross

I took an upper before your sister's wedding just to help me pretend

[Chorus]

And I don't know what I need

I don't know if I'll be there for you

When you're down on your knees

I don't know if I'll be there for you

[Verse 2]

I know you always feel you're by yourself in the house

This is the only night this week I haven't slept on the couch

I hope you know it breaks my heart that I'm the reason for you sleeping alone

'Cause it was always a dream just to know you

Sometimes, I find I can hardly speak your name

I know one day, I'll come home and won't find you

It's just a matter of time 'til you break from the strain

[Bridge]

And I don't wanna go outside

Don't wanna make it home tonight

If it's not you in my arms, I don't

Wanna carry it on

[Outro Chorus]

And I don't know what I need

I don't wanna go outside

I don't know if I'll be there for you

Don't wanna make it home tonight

When you're down on your knees

If it's not you in my arms, I don't

I don't know if I'll be there for you

Wanna carry it on

And I don't know what I need

I don't wanna go outside

I don't know if I'll be there for you

Don't wanna make it home tonight

When you're down on your knees

If it's not you in my arms, I don't

I don't know if I'll be there for you

Wanna carry it on
