lyrics

The streetcar drivers
On the line beside my house are really loud
"In their defense, " you say
"They just need to let it all out"
You stop me droning on and on again
About something I can't control
Or circumvent

Hold on while I document
All the strange ideas you have
I'd write 'em in a notebook
But my handwriting's pretty bad
I wish you could narrate every place I'll ever go
If only to see it all like you do

You've got me all figured out
I couldn't help myself
Seeing us someplace else
In sundresses so saccharine
With you laying in the grass behind
The baseball diamond and me
With my hands in the clouds
We'd have it figured all out

Can you meet me in every place I've ever lived
Like it's the first time?
You can walk me down the street
Like I've never been there once my whole life
And you can point out all the pretty parts of the buildings
I'd never noticed
I'll meet you there in five

You've got me all figured out
I couldn't help myself
Seeing us someplace else
In sundresses so saccharine
With you laying in the grass behind
The baseball diamond and me
With my hands in the clouds
We'd have it figured all out

So I guess we're getting older
Or whatever the hell they say
When we want an answer to our problems
We're not young enough to explain
But it feels a little lighter
And we spin a little slower
Just like gravity is giving us a break

You got me all figured out
I couldn't help myself
Seeing us someplace else
Someplace else
Someplace else
Someplace else
