has a really laid back groove... this was a song i wrote after things began falling apart in my last relationship, but before she actually broke up with me. i guess i thought maybe things would be okay.

the relationship was starting to feel like she wasn't into it anymore. she went away for the weekend without telling me, and i wrote this song that weekend, hoping that she just needed some time away and that things would be okay when she got back.

All of a sudden you’re gone for the weekend,
Who’s gonna win our little game of who’s-gonna-win?
Why is it even that we’re not speaking again?

You know your birthday is right around the corner,
You know I’ll probably get you something nice and this fight will be over.
So let’s just call it even.

But I hope you know you’re the reason,
When we last spoke your emotion
Got the better of you
And you got the better of me too.

Can’t help but thinking you’ll come home pretending
Nothing’s wrong, cuz that’s what you do.
You’ll never know how I wanted to talk things through.

Some days will go by and each others’ lives
Are caught up in the thousands of things.
You don’t even know and you don’t even call to see how I’m doing.

And I almost don’t even care,
I’d just rather have you here…

I hope you know you’re the reason,
When we last spoke your emotion
Got the better of you
And you got the better of me too.

And I almost don’t even care,
I’d just rather have you here…
