[Instrumental Intro]
[Intro]
Signin' off and I can barely hear your voice
Television told me to expect a storm
Headin' out so I could see you before everything turns shit
You must know what I know
Though you say that we'll start a garden after the snow
[Verse 1]
Suddenly I hear a creaking at the door
And I don't know if I live here anymore
'Nother ghost in the auditorium
I dress up nice, guess I paid the price
Then we both went down to the water to dry our eyes
[Interlude]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

[Verse 2]

I knew love, but I had not known one like this
Can't believe I miss the bathroom stalls and hotel bars
On an airplane, tryna get some rest
All I ever wanted to do was sleep on your chest
[Verse 3]
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) And I know that you've just been through a lot
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) You always say that I'm ridin' on my stubbornness
And you're just tryna be so damn kind (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
But your love is not quiet
[Outro]
You are my way out
You are my way out
Thought that you are my way out
And I am your way out
Am I not your way out?
But your love is not quiet (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Can't seem to grow a garden
Can't seem to grow a garden
