Sometimes I feel like an enemy
When I see you portray all of your love to me
And I stare in blank, respond with nothing back
If I don't leave this city, I'll never move away
This town's got no bright eyes, and I'm too young to stay
I hate all the limelight, but I wish you'd give me more
And they might call us crazy, and say that we're fools
But we don't play our lives by the same old damn rules
And I get If it takes you a few thousand years
To declare all of your dear love to me, but I love you
My mother told me son sometimes
You cannot win at life all the time
But hold your breath, for some girl will take it away
And she won't be dressed in a dress and heels
She might seem pretty and witty underneath
And when she talks, you'll get shy, with no words to say
And they might call us crazy, and say that we're fools
But we don't play our lives by the same old damn rules
And I get If it takes you a few thousand years
To declare all of your dear love to me, but I love you
Our friends all against us, it's all on the line
They call us both crazy, I differ thousand times
For if I've gone mad, darling I'd never go back
I've been looking my whole damn life
And I've found all my answers in your eyes
I'm done my adventures, I've found you and that's enough
And they might call us crazy, and say that we're fools
But we don't play our lives by the same old damn rules
And I get If it takes you a few thousand years
To declare all of your dear love to me, but I love you
