about

When the boy you like gets a number from a random chick while you're out together, and all you can think about while the rage rises in your throat is how you're going to write a song about it when you get home.

lyrics

you seek quality not quantity
that's what I've accepted gracefully
so I smile happily
as you slip a pretty girl your number right in front of me

and I'd like to see you lighter, a little less gloom in your face
and as much as I would love a chance to try it'll never
be my place

so I stop to wonder
what this feeling would sound like for sure
but I know my countless songs
don't compare to a stranger's simple word

one step and you were smitten
a smile was all she had to do
and you know, I can't really blame you
'cause I'd noticed her before too
and if you never want what you have
then you'll never want me
regardless of who I am or the things that I think

so I stop to wonder
what this feeling would sound like for sure
but I know my countless songs
don't compare to a stranger's simple word

and I know if I were a little different things might be a little different
but then I wouldn't be myself
this might not seem as real
but you know, the closer that I get to you
the farther away I feel.
And the only question in the mix, was if you felt a spark,
not for your permission to kiss you in the dark
but I guess I was just deluded so forget everything I said
it must've been some fantastical dream I thought up
all alone
in my head
