At My Back
If you're the sun, I don't wanna be the moon
The moon's too far away from you
I'd rather envelop you in the bluest of skies
If you're the rain, I don't want to be the stormy weather clouds you leap from
When you touch the ground, I'd rather splash with you
Oh, don't say opposites attract
I'd rather fight you over things we both like
Oh, don't make up for what I lack
I don't need a missing piece, just someone at my back
I don't need matching outfits or your keys
Though I would surely like those things
If you want a piece of me, I'll just run to you
'Cause when you're near, rain is gone and skies are clеar
Who needs the sun to shine when you can smile wider than the sky?
Oh, don't say opposites attract
I'd rather fight you over things we both like
Oh, don't make up for what I lack
I don't need a missing piece, just someone at my back
Just be my friend
And when the night is cold, get close
And on a good day, love me most
But call your mother every other Sunday, babe
And don't pretend, if you need my hand, hold tight
Sun or moon, or rain or shine
Who needs a metaphor when I can love you even more?
And if you're the left shoe, I can't be the right
I'm just another pair that's just a little tight when I get moody
The only matching thing I need is maybe matching little rings
But that can wait for when we're eighty and out of options
Oh, don't say opposites attract
I'd rather fight you over things we both like
Oh, don't make up for what I lack
I don't need a missing piece, just someone at my back
I don't need a missing piece to fill in the cracks
I don't need a missing piece, just someone at my back
The moon's too far away from you
I'd rather envelop you in the bluest of skies
If you're the rain, I don't want to be the stormy weather clouds you leap from
When you touch the ground, I'd rather splash with you
Oh, don't say opposites attract
I'd rather fight you over things we both like
Oh, don't make up for what I lack
I don't need a missing piece, just someone at my back
I don't need matching outfits or your keys
Though I would surely like those things
If you want a piece of me, I'll just run to you
'Cause when you're near, rain is gone and skies are clеar
Who needs the sun to shine when you can smile wider than the sky?
Oh, don't say opposites attract
I'd rather fight you over things we both like
Oh, don't make up for what I lack
I don't need a missing piece, just someone at my back
Just be my friend
And when the night is cold, get close
And on a good day, love me most
But call your mother every other Sunday, babe
And don't pretend, if you need my hand, hold tight
Sun or moon, or rain or shine
Who needs a metaphor when I can love you even more?
And if you're the left shoe, I can't be the right
I'm just another pair that's just a little tight when I get moody
The only matching thing I need is maybe matching little rings
But that can wait for when we're eighty and out of options
Oh, don't say opposites attract
I'd rather fight you over things we both like
Oh, don't make up for what I lack
I don't need a missing piece, just someone at my back
I don't need a missing piece to fill in the cracks
I don't need a missing piece, just someone at my back
