take what i can get

There's a memory that lives inside my head
I had it resting on your shoulder
We were out on a bench
Close to black out drunk I was yelling
Mean things about my ex right before

We were waiting for a cab
Bout to head back to yours
Couldn't put on your seatbelt
And we laughed it off like we always do
I reached over your shoulder to help you

And I tried my best not to feel it
I'm sitting here ignoring the things that I've already caught
But I smile right to myself when i think about you
Oh god, it was worse than I thought

I guess I'm a fool 'cause I want you
Though I always knew you could never want me too
Stay over after every party
Slow dancing back in your apartment
I guess I'm a fool 'cause I want you
Thought I always knew you could never stay for good
Run circles all around the neighborhood
My fault, it's on me that I misunderstood
Sad for me to admit
But I'm fine with it
I'll just take what I can get

There's a memory that lives inside in my head
And you kissed it goodnight
Went to sleep in your bed
It was me who let this happen
Took a stroll to a place with red flags and just waved them

And I tried my best not to feel it
A part of me just knew it exactly, I set myself up
But when you sit so close there's only one thing on my mind
Oh god, this was worse than I thought (okay, nevermind)

I guess I'm a fool 'cause I want you
Though I always knew you could never want me too
Stay over after every party
Slow dancing back in your apartment
I guess I'm a fool 'cause I want you
Thought I always knew you could never stay for good
Run circles all around the neighborhood
My fault, it's on me that I misunderstood
Sad for me to admit
But I'm fine with it
I'll just take what I can get

There's a memory that lives inside my head
And I'm desperately trying to forget
Because I know that you're seeing me different
And I know that's not how you recall it
