lyrics

I wish I could play
The right combination of chords
To move your heart closer

And I wish I could say
That my love is a limited time offer
But its not

'Cause no matter
What I do
All my thoughts keep on running
Back to you

I wish I could play It cool
Be selfish and detached
And all those things
That attract you

But instead I'm playing a game
Pretending to be all those things
'Cause I'm afraid of how much I feel
and aware of how stupid it seems

So I wonder
If you notice
With everything in your life
so self-focused

Yeah I wonder if we're playing the same game
Or if you're struggling to remember my name?

I wish I could play the fool
Just like you

I wonder
If you notice
How everything in my life
Is unfocused

Can't you see that we're playing the same game?
I wonder if you'll remember my name
