did i give you everything you needed? did i shield you from the cold? did i take the time to listen to all the things i wasn’t supposed to know? yeah, i know about your childhood and what your cousin did to you i don’t have time for your excuses i don’t make time to play the fool well, did nobody treat you right back home? did somebody let you down? well did nobody treat you right back home? put your shoebox back in the ground i don’t have time for your memories now yeah i know what i’ve been missing, yeah i know it isn’t you i’m trying to find something that’s easy, not fake the love you’re trying to prove you think i like to be your counselor? you think i love it when i’m right? i don’t like knowing all the answers takes all the learning out of my life well, did nobody treat you right back home? did somebody let you down? well did nobody treat you right back home? put your shoebox back in the ground i don’t have time for your memories now i’m not your doctor, i’ll never be so don’t set your sights on marrying me sure i understand you, yeah i know you best but i’ve yet to find a girl who can handle my head i don’t have time for all your problems i’ve got heartache of my own at least I found a way of dealing outside of running or going back home you found a place for all your feelings in your shoebox in the dirt well you try to express and get it all off your chest every day takes a little more work well, did nobody treat you right back home? did somebody let you down? well did nobody treat you right back home? put your shoebox back in the ground i don’t have time for your memories now

well i thought you'd look pretty next to me pretty shallow, i'm sorry i thought i'd have you in the trees not the flowers, but good enough for me headed up, all was well in carolina spending time every day we talked it out but then a porch swing conversation sent you spinning into orbit and spiraling in doubt so let's put on some bluegrass and think about it i'll read you a romance novel too think about what all your friends are saying it's only love that's waiting here for you now you've gone and gotten yourself in a quandary you need a man of means to get you to the end you put your heart out on your sleeve to take a beating but not a single simple text you'd wanna send as your behavior shocks the likes of all your exes and pushes them away it pulls me in i have nothing but clarity around me and no excuses for adults who play pretend so let's put on some bluegrass and think about it i'll read you a romance novel too think about what all your friends are saying it's only love that's waiting here for you my buddy calls you late to talk it over: "is this you? is this who you wanna be?" i sit and write a song anticipating and get nostalgic for the weekend in the trees pretty faces don't deserve to do the crying silently you blame it on yourself but that's not yet the worst of it they tell me cause here i am, another boyfriend that can help so let's put on some bluegrass and think about it i'll read you a romance novel too think about what all your friends are saying it's only love that's waiting here for you it’s only love
