Keep in touch (december) Lyrics

You couldn't speak when I said it

Heart racing in your chest now

If you don't wanna talk, just forget it

I don't wanna see you stressed out

Don't stress now, we can be friends now

No hard feelings when I left town

And no getting high without a comedown

I know that now

It's been a couple months sober

I wonder if you're still grieving

You came back, you looked older

I know it couldn'tve been easy

And man I've been all over

LA for the summer, Seattle last weekend

Top down, tall trees, sun beamin

Driving down the coast, fresh air I'm breathin

I said I'll see ya when I see ya

Right now we're not speaking

I called you, then I turned my phone off

I guess I'm tryna get even

I thought I'd catch you back in Berkeley

We took the train to the theatre

Running all around town tryna meet you

But I must've missed you - I'll catch you in the morning

Wide open, no skin, heart bleeding

I wonder if you see through me

Different time zones, tryna get to me

I couldn't be what you needed

Sleeping with your head on my shoulder

Early morning with the blue light streaming

I kissed your forehead, smiling in your sleep at me

Baby, who could ever leave you?

When I'm gone you're always on my mind

Can't get free from what I left behind

Been tryna say I love you all this time

Somehow it just never comes out right

I guess I got what I wanted

It's been a year since I met you

The kids keep telling me I'm good luck

Boy, I told you I was bad news

I couldn't help it, I had to have you

We were holding off months, it was past due

You tried to warn me baby I ignored you

We both got issues, I know that's true

So good couldn't wait to sabotage it

And all our friends saying they could see it 'fore I saw it

But rain or shine I know I'm fine

so I just keep pushing, don't waste my time

You couldn't speak when I said it

Heart breaking in your chest now

If you don't wanna talk just forget it

I don't wanna leave a mess now

Don't break down, we can still hang out

And what we have can't ever be replaced now

Trying to place why I'm so outta place now

I'm still hanging where you dropped out

When I'm gone you're always on my mind

Can't get free from what I left behind

Been tryna say I love you 'fore I go

Somehow I keep ending up alone

Took all I had to put aside my pride

And reach my hands across that great divide

Been tryna say I love you all this time

Somehow it just never comes out right

Sink piling up with dishes

Soft light on the ceiling

Salt lime and tequila

Late night feelings

Hit me back when you wake up

You can call me, you don't need a reason

So good just to hear from you

I keep forgetting why I'm leaving

I'm spending break in the city

I'll be in town for your next show

Plus I got a new stack of demos

Surf punk, so SLO

I wonder if your new friends know

Well, I guess it won't matter when I let go

I've been a mess, though

I know my roommates sick of the theatrics

Bad trips, turning vices into habits

Can't talk about it in the past tense

What happened to "whatever happens"?

I can't give up my attachments

I can't give up on the past, but

Whatever you need man it's just a couple hours

I'm still here even if you can't see me and

I still care even if we're not together

Head buried in my chest

I felt the room freeze over

Crying that it doesn't make sense, well

I hope it does by December

And I'll just keep myself busy

Putting out fires in my head

But I don't plan to forget you

Knew it when we met, I'm pretty sentimental

And it was all so tender

I've never been more certain

For what it's worth, it was worth it

Every second with you perfect

When I'm gone you're always on my mind

Can't get free from what I left behind

Been tryna say I love you all this time

Somehow it just never comes out right
