We stayed up drinking the Japanese whiskey

That your father brought home from Tokyo

You said that I can′t go home 'til it′s emptyBut my, my lips are dry

I don't like the taste, but I like how it sounds

So I stayed there and wasted our time

I tried to act like a man, but I felt like a child

Seems like the closer I hold you, the colder it feels, oh-oh-oh-oh

But we only fall in love with things that ain't really real, oh-oh-ho

I wanted to be what you wanted in me

But if I′m being honest, I can′t

You don't keep lists of your hits or your misses

But I carve my kisses in stone

I keep my past behind glass, but you don′t wanna know

Seems like the closer I hold you, the colder it feels, oh, oh, oh-oh

But we only fall in love with things that ain't really real, oh-oh-oh-oh

I wanted to be what you wanted from me

But if I′m being honest, I can't

Oh, I close my eyes

And swallow your bitter words whole

I can′t decide

If I like it or just can't let go

I close my eyes

And swallow your bitter words whole

I can't decide

If I like it or just can′t let go
