Put down the phone girl, I gotta go girl
I just can’t make this scene
My suit’s an ocean that I can’t float in
Fake under satin sheen
Baby best believe I’m tryin’
Shine light where light should shed
But right now I’d just be lyin’
If this went unsaid, Oh
Don’t go waitin’ up on me girl, Your time is precious
Why spend your days correctin’ this man who can’t be told
That life’s for simple pleasures, take them as they come
My heart is far too restless, so best to just let me run, oh don’t
Out in the suburbs at baby showers
White whine on the tongues
Of power couples, their troubled nuptials
Never undersung
Is this the path before me
Is this what lays ahead
‘Cause if so just keep on ignoring me
Might as well be, well be...
Don’t go waitin’ up on me girl, Your time is precious
Why spend your days correctin’ this man who can’t be told
That life’s for simple pleasures, take them as they come
My heart is far too restless, so best to just let me run, oh don’t
I can promise you I'll fall
Can't promise I won't call
When night envelops me,
And the safety of your sweet embrace shines on
A gift I can't reclaim
So just call me by name
And let me keep on tumblin',
You and I both know, I'm good as gone
Don’t go waitin’ up on me girl, Your time is precious
Why spend your days correctin’ this man who can’t be told
That life’s for simple pleasures, take them as they come
My heart is far too restless, so best to just let me run, oh don’t
