Best Day Ever

The morning before, I had put your shirt on
It wasn't really like me
And I didn't know that I'd remember that day
I didn't know that I wouldn't be extending my stay

'Til I packed all the presents that I gave you for Christmas
Backed the car up until I went right into that ditch
And you had to push me out
I think I threw up a little in my mouth

And text me about all the shit that I stole
It's okay, you can have back your spoons and your bowls
Why are you talking 'bout that
How about the house we looked at?

Did you really have time to throw back just a few beers
While I am spending my money, holding back all my tears
I guess I haven't been happy
Cusco wasn't reality

And the truth is this story had an ending as soon as it began
I just loved your flaws as much as I loved you
But I can't take care of two
When I'm just as lost as you

And as soon as it died, suddenly I missed my dad
I was keeping you around for some semblance of a man
From the clothes on your back to the bike that you crashed
I was paving the way to a fucked up romance

But I liked that about it, it was something to fix
It was something to work on, so I ignored all of my shit
But because we came so far, we had farther to fall
So as we started to tumble, I kept you on a pedestal

And the books that I've read
Now that you've left me on read
I guess they're helping make sense
Of when I left your bed
Can't get it out of my head
I called you right when I left
I told the waitress I'd had
The best day ever, I said
Then I pulled up to your van
Gave you a pastry and then
I kissed you right through the window
I can still smell your neck
I guess it's true what she said
You can never expect
To say goodbye over the threshold
And then see them again
