paroles de chanson How To Make Friends? - Jay Filson

I got a new job in a new town
There's new faces all around
I'm sure I'll get it figured out
All I gotta do is be myself, right?

But it turns out it ain't easy to break in
Nobody really needs new friends
When they already got plans
For the weekend

And I thought I knew
But lately I've been wondering

How do people make
How do people make friends so easily
Why don't people say
Why don't people say what they really mean
Maybe it's me
Am I just coming on too strong?
I guess I'll wait a week to call
Unless you think a week's not long enough
And I try so hard
But it seems like trying
Is what pushes them away

Well I've made a few
But they all got their own lives too
There's always another excuse
Why they can't come play with you

And I thought I knew
But here I am asking myself

How do people make
How do people make friends so easily
Why don't people say
Why don't people say what they really mean
Maybe it's me
Am I just coming on too strong?
I guess I'll wait a week to call
Unless you think a week's not long enough
And I try so hard
But it seems like trying
Is what pushes them away
(Away)

Well I'm grown up now
Life's not a playground
It's a little more complicated
Than smiling and waving
But oh how I miss the days when
I knew how to make friends

How do people make
How do people make friends so easily
Why don't people say
Why don't people say what they really mean
Maybe it's me
Am I just coming on too strong?
I guess I'll wait a week to call
Unless you think a week's not long enough
And I try so hard
But it seems like trying
Is what pushes them away
