Nora Jane

[Verse 1]
They used to hate the way Jake smoked his life away
Luke had too many tattoos that didn't really mean a damn thing
You can see my hesitation why I've been waiting so long
(Yeah, yeah)
'Cause I see it in my head, that's why I'm scared to death
What if this goes wrong?

[Chorus]
What's my dad gonna do when I bring you home?
What's my mom gonna say when I tell her you're the one I love?
Tell her you're the one I want
Is my brother gonna hate me?
I'm afraid everyone I love won't love me the same
When I tell 'em your name, Nora Jane

[Verse 2]
I'm ready for the breakdown fall, I'll get the hell out of my house
And I completely understand if they can't handle it right now
Can't blame me for my hesitation, why I've been waiting so long
(Yeah, yeah)
'Cause I see it in my head, that's why I'm scared to death
What if this goes wrong?

[Chorus]
What's my dad gonna do when I bring you home?
What's my mom gonna say when I tell her you're the one I love?
Tell her you're the one I want
Is my brother gonna hate me?
I'm afraid everyone I love won't love me the same
When I tell 'em your name, Nora Jane

[Chorus]
My dad wasn't too tough when I brought you home
My mom gave me a hug when I told her you're the one I love
Told her you're the one I want
My brother found a way to be okay
And I found everyone I love still loves me the same
When I tell 'em your name, Nora Jane
