You know I like this way things are
Your ego tall and your fancy cars
Your undenying competence
The lies to yourself that you can't resist
In our unconventional whatevership
Makes sense in a way we know exists
Because I understand your misunderstandings
Don't need a perfect man, because how we stand is
Close
But far enough to stay
Out of love
And of mistakes
Not out of touch
Because I like the way
Your hand feels when its pressed against my face
Because we'll only ever get this far
I think that's just the way we are
My expectations set to stay
In our endless "lover" part-time parade
You know I like the way things are
My mind set on moving far
My conscious blindness pushing forward
My silhouette, you can't ignore
In our unconventional whatevership
Makes sense in a way we know exists
Because I understand your misunderstandings
Don't need a perfect man, because how we stand is
Close
But far enough to stay
Out of love
And of mistakes
Not out of touch
Because I like the way
Your hand feels when its pressed against my face
Because we'll only ever get this far
I think that's just the way we are
My expectations set to stay
In our endless "lover" part-time parade
Because we'll only ever get this far
I think that's just the way we are
My expectations set to stay
In our endless "lover" part-time parade
