act like you're happy to see me
a very rough take of a song i wrote about a girl who broke my heart, because i'm so original.
this may be all i have to give
Story behind the song
boy meets girl.
boy loves girl.
boy loses girl.
boy writes song because he runs out of cigarettes.
Lyrics
so do you remember the time you called
at 2am
and said you were driving down to see me
and you knew that i'd be up
and i think about you driving
to where it is
that you want so bad to be
with something downright lame
playing on
the stereo in your car
i know how much you love to drive at night
and if your passenger seat stays empty
then maybe
you'll drive straight round
and pick me up, yeah
and act like you're happy to see me
you'll be so cold
while i burn down
with not a trace of warmth between us
so do you remember the time you died
then came to life
and said that you'd had a talk with god
and you knew i would disbelieve
and i think about you dying
and how it hurts
that it won't be next to me
with something downright lame
written on
the little plaque at your grave
so do you remember the time you left
without a reason
cause things aren't the way they used to be
but you knew i would disagree
and i think about your exit
and how it felt
to see that train speed you from me
with something downright lame
playing on
the walkman in your pocket
i know how much you love to drive at night
and if your passenger seat stays empty
then maybe
you'll drive straight round
and pick me up, yeah
and act like you're happy to see me
you'll be so cold
while i burn down
with not a trace of warmth between us
you'll drive straight round
and pick me up, yeah
and act like you're happy to see me
(please) act like you're happy to see me
(just) act like you're happy to see me
(don't) act like you're happy to see me
and act like you're happy to see me
