Pancakes & Cigarettes
Baby don't you get so down
There's no one else around
Know I'd hate to see you frown
So tell me what it's like
Smoking cigarettes off the ground
As we're dancing through the town
Well is this what you needed?
Just you and me
How did it get this hard?
Staying the week
She cutting my teeth
It was the first time you spoke to me
The words rolled right over me
You told me 'bout the world
And it's how you think it's supposed to be
And she said "If you play your cards right"
"You could have me on the floor"
But all of that means nothing
When she's walking out the door
So hold me until all the air leaves my chest
And give me something that I wouldn't forget
We're tangled in sheets and we're laughing in bed
But nothing matters when you're playing pretend
So, I told her
Baby don't you get so down
(Don't ya, well don't ya)
There's no one else around
(There's no one, there's no one)
Know I'd hate to see you frown
(I'd hate to see ya)
So tell me what it's like
Smoking cigarettes off the ground
As we're dancing through the town
Well is this what you needed?
(Is this what you need?)
She said "Don't be scared boy"
"Hold my hand"
"Kiss my neck"
"Our lips turn red"
I could wait
By the window baby
On my face
All your tears fall slow
Stay awake
Don't you get so low
Take your time
Looking for somebody you won't find
Close your eyes
And we can stay a little while
We're changing clothes
And all I know
Is nothings ever gonna slow
Well, maybe you should?
There's no one else around
Know I'd hate to see you frown
So tell me what it's like
Smoking cigarettes off the ground
As we're dancing through the town
Well is this what you needed?
Just you and me
How did it get this hard?
Staying the week
She cutting my teeth
It was the first time you spoke to me
The words rolled right over me
You told me 'bout the world
And it's how you think it's supposed to be
And she said "If you play your cards right"
"You could have me on the floor"
But all of that means nothing
When she's walking out the door
So hold me until all the air leaves my chest
And give me something that I wouldn't forget
We're tangled in sheets and we're laughing in bed
But nothing matters when you're playing pretend
So, I told her
Baby don't you get so down
(Don't ya, well don't ya)
There's no one else around
(There's no one, there's no one)
Know I'd hate to see you frown
(I'd hate to see ya)
So tell me what it's like
Smoking cigarettes off the ground
As we're dancing through the town
Well is this what you needed?
(Is this what you need?)

All your tears fall slow
Stay awake
Don't you get so low

Looking for somebody you won't find
Close your eyes
And we can stay a little while
We're changing clothes
And all I know
Is nothings ever gonna slow
Well, maybe you should?
