Maple St. - The View Lyrics

I came for the smile I stayed for the laugh
Tried waiting it out but the love didn't pass
And everywhere I go you know I'm going cause I think that I might run into you
I stayed for the conversation even though I came for the view
I loved all those days stripped socks on your floor
Cold hands on your face but I wanted more
I'm sorry that it took me so long to see what everyone else could already see
That all this time you made me a better me

So let's run away take me to Portland we'll get a cab we'll leave in the morning don't need a
Ring we'll get a tattoo I was happy alone but I'm happy with you
Let's run away get a train up to Boise f*ck these degrees in how to make money
Roasting potatoes wearing your sweater we can kill time just being together
I came for the I came for the I came for the view I came for the I came for the

I called you a friend I crashed in your bedroom
You were so close I could reach out and touch you reach out and touch you reach out and
And everything I write you know I write it cause it might be beautiful to you
I stayed for the conversation even though I came for the view

Let's run away take a plane down to Austin I can write country we can go dancing spend all
Our free time playing at bars I'll learn the bass you'll pick up that guitar let's
Runaway let's drive to Seattle sippin' coffee in rainboots and flannels don't need a kid or a
White picket fence we can have dogs and lots of good friends

Stay awhile stay stay awhile
Stay awhile stay awhile
Stay awhile stay stay awhile
Stay awhile stay stay awhile
Stay awhile stay awhile
Stay awhile stay stay awhile oh

Let's run away let's live in Atlanta I'll be your peach tree you'll be my sweet tea I'll eat you up
Like mosquitos in summer
Don't care where you are if we're there together let's

Run away take me to Portland we'll get a cab we'll leave in the morning don't need a
Ring we'll get a tattoo I was happy alone but I'm happy with you
Let's run away get a train up to Boise f*ck these degrees in how to make money
Roasting potatoes wearing your sweater we can kill time just being together
Let's run away take a plane down to Austin I can write country we can go dancing spend all
Our free time playing at bars I'll learn the bass you'll pick up that guitar let's
Runaway let's drive to Seattle sippin' coffee in rainboots and flannels don't need a kid or a
White picket fence we can have dogs and lots of good friends
