Bowerbird

Go and tell your friends that we weren't right
That I came in way too hard
That I went and acted like
You and I were something the world should see
That no one else could be right for me
And you'd be telling the truth
Just like you said you'd do
You can't pin this all on me
Setting fire to us took two
There's just one more question I'm asking you

So why can't you just even up?
I'd lie if I said I was over us
Tell me to move on
Tell me this wasn't it
Tell me just one time
So I can forget
Baby why can't you just even up

You up and left like you'd never heard of me
I figured I hear from you in a week, to get coffee
Just to say you were done
I was wrong

There's a saying that some folks say
That if you love something let it go
And it'll come back when free
But if she dont, let her go. It wasn't meant to be
Still after all this time I'm standing by
Waiting for that phone to ring

So why can't you just even up?
I'd lie if I said I was over us
Tell me to move on
Tell me this wasn't it
Tell me just one time
So I can forget
Baby why can't you just even up

I didn't mean to hurt no one
My wild heart was on the run
I picked you up and pushed my luck
And with the pedal down I froze up

I know you weren't asking for much
And that I left you high and dry is enough
I wanted wind in our hair, Hearts burning up
You needed time to tend the seed in us

But why can't you just even up?
I'd lie if I said I was over us
Tell me to move on
