The Cold East Coast

You've heard what I've had to say
You think you understand
But things go so much deeper than what you think.
My feelings for you run so much deeper
Than what you can see.

I'm with you I can't have you
I hate you and I love you.
I know you won't be here forever
I could have you know
but what happens later?

You won't be mine to have
and if I asked you if
you felt the same
I know what you would say.
You're eyes they tell a story;
with every blink
they give you away

You're something I can't forget
something I know I won't regret.
When I wake up tomorrow
I can predict where you'll most likely be

You'll take off from the cold East Coast
And run to California
isolate me with your ghost.
He's waiting by the tall palm trees
Because Cali's not as bright when you've been here with me.

You've always thought
He'd be your safest bet
Girl, you need to get a grip.
