[ Featuring Loners ]
Do you remember when we met that day
In middle school I couldn't look away
The finest girl I had ever seen
I never thought you would fall for me
For five years I loved you from afar
Wondering if my chance would ever start
Then you saw me how I saw you
I thought it was too good to be true
But oh, then you told me
That now you know I'm the one
But soon it occurred to me
This might just be infatuation
Yeah I thought I was in love in the summer 2013
But I soon realized it was all just a dream
I like the idea but now I think
The reality of love might just not be for me
I once wanted you to spend your life with me
There was a time I thought that was everything that I'd need
It sounded kind of nice but now I see
The reality of love might just not be for me
Sure at first I was deep in love
The excitement lasted about six months
We grew more and more serious
It was a stressful experience
You wanted to have a future
But as for me I was so unsure
Just let things be how they will
I wanted time to just stand still
But oh, then you told me
You wanted more than high school romance
I just didn't want to
Grow up and be a man
Yeah I thought I was in love in the summer 2013
But I soon realized it was all just a dream
I like the idea but now I think
The reality of love might just not be for me
I don't even know when things changed for me
But a lifelong commitment seemed so terrifying
No other explanation looking back I think
The reality of love was just never for me
I only love the idea
I don't love the reality
I guess I'm just too self centered
To give you what you want from me
I thought I knew what I wanted
But I was more confused than ever
Oh, looking back now
I wish that I'd been up front with her
Yeah I thought I was in love in the summer 2013
But I soon realized it was all just a dream
I like the idea but now I think
The reality of love might just not be for me
You told me that you wanted to marry me
That kind of planning for the future seemed a little extreme
Oh how was I to know at the age of sixteen
That the reality of love might just not be for me
