Pepper Tattoo

I drink my coffee with a straw now
But my order's still the same
I dyed it dark and grew my hair out
I know you like it that way

And I thought I saw your car
Driving down the boulevard
It looks the same
By the way

And you know it's something special
When you still can't walk away
After five thousand hours
Of pretending that we've changed

I'm sick of singing bout you
And so is my guitar
My voice is getting tired
Of wondering how you are

I'd crawl to northern California
Just to feel the way you look at me

Come back if you want
I'll be waiting for you
I'm here if you need me
The way I used to be
Come back if you want
You can stay in my room
The walls could cave in
But it'd be lovely with you
Peel off all my clothing
Take my skin with it too
Does your pulse beat for me
Next to your pepper tattoo
Come back if you want
Come back if you want
Come back if you want
Come back if you want
Do you want to
