Summery, acoustic driven mid-tempo song telling the story of a relationship squabble, the apology, and the eventual yet certain make up. Chorus makes light of the situation and the promise of making up "we won't get to sleep anytime soon" The tone changes in bridge to more heartfelt apology then back to light to round it out.

Lyrics
I arrive, pass the neighbors and pull into the drive, I'm never quite on time.
So I sit on the corner of your bed while you try on every dress you own.
There's a light in your eyes that tells me tonight's just beginning.
Who do you think you're trying to fool? We both know there's nothing here to prove, and even though we're fighting this thing through, you know as well as I do: we won't get to sleep any time soon.
And you, I know you're lying through your teeth i see you laughing underneath that frown. You act like I've brought us to the brink, but your body tells the truth of what you think.
There's a light in your eyes that tells me tonight's just beginning.
Who do you think you're trying to fool? We both know there's nothing here to prove, and even though we're fighting this thing through, you know as well as I do: we won't get to sleep any time soon.
So I was late for the seventh time this week. Its my mistake and I promise I will keep one eye on the time just as long as you stop hiding.
The light in your eyes is telling me tonight is not quite over, yeah.
Who do you think you're trying to fool? We both know there's this is nothing new, and even though we're fighting this thing through, you know as well as I do: we won't get to sleep any time soon.
