You don’t know how hard it is to

Get it off my mind

I’ve been trying lately just to

Suffocate the time

I know she probably looked real

Pretty in that dress

I know i missed my chances

But i still think i’d be best

Sometimes i just wish that you would

Pick up your phone

Call me to Santa Monica

Tell me you’re alone

I’d say “Oh you’re crazy”

You’d say “Maybe you’re right

But i just need to see you tonight”

I’ve never been to rooftops like that

I’ve never climbed from Greenpoint back

And you will always be hard to define

But you’ll always be the chance that I missed

I remember thinking

Life is beautiful with you

Walking around Williamsburg with one damn shoe

Open the kitchen window

Climb the latter to the roof

You sat there saving me

When they all hated me

Like only you could see my truth

I’ve never been to rooftops like that

I’ve never climbed from greenpoint back

And you will always be hard to define

But you’ll always be the chance that I missed

We stared at Manhattan

I saw forever with you

But now forever’s for you and her

I cannot blame you

I was always running

I know i wore out your shoes

Thinking is this real?

Is this sincere?

Is this the right thing to do?

I’ve never been to rooftops like that

I’ve never climbed from Greenpoint back

And you will always be hard to define

But you’ll always be the chance that I missed
