Smoke alight between your fingers
“Did you know that's bad for you?”, she smirked
“I wasn't aware, thanks”
I wasn't always this confident
It just goes to show how much loneliness changes a man
At least I know it changed me for sure

Fixate, relate
Come back to me
It's never too late
“I still feel like you're the only one that ever got me”
It scared me then, but distance has moved me
I'm still what you need, come back to me

Five years and I'd like to say I'm patient
But maybe you don't know me
Although I travelled the country and realised where I went wrong
Maybe I can't keep, keep you all along
Please fixate, fixate for just this song

Fixate, relate
Come back to me
It's never too late
“I still feel like you're the only one that ever got me”
It scared me then, but distance has moved me
I'm still what you need, come back to me

I remember he repeated it every day for a few months
“Chris, she's only 16. She's not what you need, let her go”
Now she's 20 and I still can't let her go
“I'm glad you let him go, he's a loser”
And maybe I was wrong?
And maybe your friends were all right about me

Fixate, relate
Come back to me
It's never too late
“I still feel like you're the only one that ever got me”
It scared me then, but distance has moved me
I'm still what you need, come back to me
