Falling in Love with Your Best Friend
I heard a song once
About falling in love with your best friend
I'd give about anything to hear that song again

Last summer I was
Singing along with my favorite band
Every word they'd scream was neon green

I already knew I'd fallen apart
But that was the first time I'd noticed
That I was slowly but surely coming back together

I heard a song once
Broke my heart on the drive back to michigan
Coming slow through Lansing at 3 AM

Pulled into the driveway
Let the car run
I've been gone
For way too long

And I wanted to call you
Or just show up at your house or something
Even though i knew it wouldn't make me feel any better

Last summer I was
Trying not to fall in love with anyone
Because there's way too much work to get done
Last summer I was
Living down in Bloomington
It had been so long since I felt young
Maybe I was just running away

As if it's just a bad thing
To try
And make my life better

I heard a song once
About falling in love with your best friend
I'd give about anything, to hear that song again
