lyrics

I can't stand the way you are
The way you make adventures out of life
You've got the sun in your heart
And it keeps bleeding out on mine
I hope that we can still be friends
As the world falls apart and moments end
But wherever you go however it is
Its just nice to know that you exist

You make the hardest things look so easy
While I struggle to get out of bed
You keep on doing what you're doing
And I'll keep stumbling around in my head
I hope that we can still be friends
As the world falls apart and moments end
And you don't owe me anything
But you make me feel just like it's spring

You make the sun seem brighter
Wherever you are
Sometimes it gets hard
But you just try harder
You make the air taste sweeter
Like the blooming of flowers
Like spring nights and showers
That's your super power

And your just a person
A person with flaws
A person who's perfect even if they're not
I love you wherever
You end up in life
You can't change the weather well neither can I

I can't stand the way you are
And maybe that's not fair
But fair and life seem miles apart
I just hope you know I care
Cuz you don't owe me anything
But you make me feel just like it's spring
Yea you don't owe me anything
But you make me feel just like it's spring
