[Verse 1]
Say my name, I've always wanted you to say it
Tongue pressed close against the cheek
Brushed red fingertip, sippin' on the college way
You held my heart for the week
[Chorus]
No, I can't be around you anymore
Around you anymore, around you anymore
Spring peels shyly around the open door
Around the open door, the one I left there for you
[Verse 2]
Breaking waves like the cosmic saving grace
Had you not drained another ocean just for fun
Right window streaming god-infested cloud
Through unseen stoplight, I bet it was the sun
[Chorus]
No, I can't be around you anymore
Around you anymore, around you anymore
Spring peels shyly around the open door
Around the open door, the one I left there for you
[Bridge]
Turnin' back, I couldn't breathe if you had asked me to
A trouble, sudden change of heart
Tiptoe on the glass, shattered corners of the past
Still bloody, I forgot this part
[Chorus]
No, I can't be around you anymore
Around you anymore, around you anymore
Spring peels shyly around the open door
Around the open door, the one I left there for you
No, I can't be around you anymore
Around you anymore, around you anymore
Spring peels shyly around the open door
Around the open door, the one I left there for you
