I Wanna Be There Baby

I wanna be there baby, but I'm just here writing a song of ages
Yeah I know I should take you out
And I know I should treat you right
But I keep fucking it up even though it's black and white
I need to be thinking of us and not just be thinking of me
There are things I wish to say and even so why can't you see

I wanna be there baby, but I'm writing a song
Writing a song of ages
I wanna take you out but, I'm just way too involved
Way too involved in my hatred

I have habits I can't break, the more I try the harder it seems
But because we're not in line, I'm scared we're breaking at the seems
Everyday is work and sleep, it's a cycle that makes you feel unseen
Trying to balance the checkbook of life, I'm sorry if I seem rude and mean

I wanna be there baby, but I'm writing a song
Writing a song of ages
I wanna take you out but, I'm just way too involved
involved in my hatred

There's not enough time I swear to my mom
If I nitpick at everything, you'll drop the bomb
Sometimes I think you're right, but other times not so much
Why can't we shift our gears and hit the clutch

Yeah I know I should take you out
And I know I should treat you right
But I keep fucking it up even though it's black and white

I wanna be there baby, but I'm writing a song
Writing a song of ages
I wanna take you out but, I'm just way too involved
involved in my hatred

Ooh writing a song, writing a song of ages
Ooh writing a song, writing a song of ages
