Tallymarks

I can't explain it, I'm afraid of noise
And all this time, still afraid of boys
It's in the winter, it's in my head
Well, don't look now, I think it's under my bed

And we drop, drop tears like tally marks
And it builds like snow, and it keeps us apart
And I drop, drop tears like tally marks
And I'm keeping score, so I keep us apart
But I think, I might miss you enough to say so
And I think I already did
Well, I think I might miss you enough to say so
And there you go, I just said it again

Well, that same winter, my old man made tracks
And I did too, but I came back
So don't, don't, don't explain love to me
Love, love, love is not why we leave
It is real life dreams, make-believe people
You can't build cathedrals out of finger steeples

And we drop, drop tears like tally marks
And it builds like snow, and it keeps us apart
And I drop, drop tears like tally marks
And I'm keeping score, so I keep us apart
But I think, I might miss you enough to say so
And I think I already did
Well, I think I might miss you enough to say so
And there you go, I just said it again
Well, there you go, I just said it again

Steady on, steady on, steady on my mind
Steady on my mind
Steady on, steady on, steady on my mind
Steady on my mind
Surely, surely I, surely, surely I want love
Just as bad as the next
But deeper down in my, deeper down in my bones
Is where it sets

And we drop, drop tears like tally marks
And it builds like snow, and it keeps us apart
And I drop, drop tears like tally marks
And I'm keeping score, so I keep us apart
But I think, I might miss you enough to say so
And I think I already did
Well, I think I might miss you enough to say so
And there you go, I just said it again
Well, there you go, I just said it again
