Lyrics

I love a good cliché, please don't take that away
Every time I'm in your arms I fall for every one of your charms
I last saw you two years ago, I should have left you long before
If you say be there, I'll be, you frustrate the hell out of me 'cause

CHORUS
I like my first things first
And my last things first
I need you more today
Than I did in the past

I thought I was rid of you, I guess we were never really through
I threw you right out onto your ass and I thought this too might pass now
I need to see you one more time, I need to fall for one more line
You decided that nothing was free, you frustrate the hell out of me 'cause

CHORUS

BRIDGE
Lately I've been missing you more than ever
But when we talk, all we talk about's the weather
I used to think we could have fallen in love
Man, what the fuck was I thinking of?
Or maybe I was just a little tiny bit right?

You wanna go back to our favorite dive? See our favorite band play live?
Could we go and lose our heads if I promise not to kick you out of bed?
You throw me off-axis every time that you sing my favorite line
You were always better than me, yeah you frustrate the hell out of me 'cause

CHORUS
