A Million Things

There's a million things I'd like to say
But if you'll stay
I'll try to hold 'em back a little
And a million things I'd like to hear
Before you disappear
And then you raise your voice a little

It's been a minute and it's no surprise
That you roll your eyes
Every time I wanna talk about it
Another minute you throw up your hands
And then you make demands
Like you never wanna hear about it
So let's be clear about it

[Chorus]
There's a million things I wish you were
But what's for sure is one thing I wish you were not
I wish you weren't the one to leave me stranded
Here empty handed with a head full of wishes

There's a million words and I've said none
I've held 'em on my tongue
And carry them into the evening
I lie in bed and swallow every word
And though it seems absurd
It's worth it to keep you from leaving

And in the morning when I lie awake
Because my insides ache
I try to get back to a dream about it
Where every word makes up the air you breathe
You'd never think to leave
'Cause you know you couldn't live without 'em
You won't survive without 'em

[Chorus]
There's a million things I wish you were
But what's for sure is one thing I wish you were not
I wish you weren't the one to leave me stranded
Here empty handed with a head full of wishes

There's a million things I wish you were
But what's for sure is one thing I wish you were not
I wish you weren't the one to leave me stranded
Here empty handed with a head full of wishes

There's a million things I wish you were
But what's for sure is one thing I wish you were not
I wish you weren't the one to leave me stranded
Here empty handed with a head full of wishes
