Favorite Color

[Verse 1]
Where'd you go to school? What's your favorite food?
Where do you spend your time on the weekends?
What's your favorite song? Do your parents get along?
I'm bored to death, can't he see it?
I'm twisting my thumbs as he sips from his cup
Could have better conversation with my ceiling
He's grabbing my knee as I'm trying to leave
That's the first time and last time I'll see him

[Pre-Chorus]
I remember it all too well
Thinking I've never been closer to hell 'til I met you
I thought that I walked into Heaven's room
Don't want to check out soon

[Chorus]
Step back and take a good look at everything we have
I don't think it gets any better than that
If you let go, don't know if I'll recover
I can take another
I can't, can't learn somebody else all over again
Don't want another, "Hey, you should meet my friend"
'Cause there's no more, I'm sure to discover
I can't take another, "What's your favorite color?"

[Verse 2]
We talk throught the night, now I can read your mind
Tell me things that you always held secret
And I'll hold 'em close
How could I ever go back to shallow when I know you the deepest?

[Chorus]
Step back and take a good look at everything we have
I don't think it gets any better than that
If you let go, don't know if I'll recover
I can take another
I can't, can't learn somebody else all over again
Don't want another, "Hey, you should meet my friend"
'Cause there's no more, I'm sure to discover
I can't take another, "What's your favorite color?"

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, no
I can't take another, no
Mm-mm

[Outro]
Let's work this out, don't leave me blue
'Cause I'm bleeding red when I'm without you
You're my brown-eyed boy, I'm your rose perfume
When you need me the grass grows greener too
And a white picket fence with a bayside view
Under the yellow sun, a summer afternoon
Driving your old gray car in the middle of June
I'll never find you again in someone new
