One day, you cried in bed next to me
You told me to lie, “Don't be a realist”
I know I'm not a perfect one for you now though,
yes, I'm trying to be

I think I like you with what you've done
You're sitting right here with all of the pieces
I felt the pain when I started to talk about the stupid things,
the stupid things I've done

Tonight, next to you,
in a different dream
and I'm trying to find the words
But you are walking away,
never turning around,
and following another man
Waking up, realize sunlight from the window,
showing your face look the same as I saw yesterday
You make me write these songs,
that's the stupid things I've done

One day you smiled and looked at me
You're telling me nobody's better than me
I know someone has told me such a stupid thing when I was seventeen
She has left me alone

Tonight, next to you,
in a different dream
and I'm trying to find the words
But you are walking away,
never turning around,
and following another man
Waking up, realize sunlight from the window,
showing your face look the same as I saw yesterday
You make me write these songs,
that's the stupid things I've done

Waking up,
realize I was crying for a nightmare
Nobody's there but your tshirt lying on the floor
You make me feel like this again

One day you cried in bed next to me
You told me to lie, “Don't be a realist”
I know I gotta apologize to you
for all of the stupid things,
the stupid things I've done
