Nice People

Two months later, I didn’t think it was true
Standing on a moving train hearing stories about you
From a friend whose boyfriend is your friend
It’s not that complicated
Well it wasn’t until you made it
Hahaha buddy - that’s so funny
That you ever thought I want to be your honey
No, I’m not telling lies
I’m just this friendly all the time so I don’t think you should
Flatter yourself, I haven’t been waiting
For you to turn around and
Tell me that you want me too
I was only making nice like nice people do
Tell me why it is, whenever I bump into you,
You always want to know if I am seeing someone new
Yeah I know, your boyfriend was my friend
It’s not that complicated
Well it wasn’t until you made it
Hahaha buddy – that’s so funny
That you even thought I'd ever loved your honey
No I’m not telling lies
You met at my do but we only spoke twice
So I don't think you should flatter yourself,
I haven’t been waiting
For your romance to go down
So he’d remember me again
I was only making nice, I was just making friends
Guess the jokes on me
I thought I scrimped and saved on subtlety
So why can’t you see that
I’m trying to tell you
Hahaha honey – isn’t it funny
That you only ever see me as your buddy
No I’m not telling lies
It happens in the novels so why not in real life?
But I don’t think you could see it yourself
I try to find the words
But can’t form them in my mouth
To tell you I want to try it with you
I think that maybe you’re just a nice person too

Maybe

Steady slowly
Empty hands are lonely
Waiting by my side
Driving downtown
Can’t really help but go round
In circles in my mind
I suppose you wouldn’t know anything about what
I’ve been thinking 'cause I don’t even know myself
Maybe if I were somebody else
But it wouldn’t be the same
If you would call, if I would answer
You would run and I would dance my way
Across the room
Soft lighting, silver shoes
I watch the pictures all the time
Images tossed around each night
But the face, never focuses into view
Is it the idea or do I think of you?
Pausing, pacing
Quickened hearts embracing
As summer warms us all
Foolish, flickers
Paper, rock beats scissors
Like a child so terrified
You’ll read my thoughts
I can tell that you don’t know me at all
Though I fell
But I think I’m losing score
Why can’t I tell
When it should be so simple
I know you, I melt
With a touch so soft and gentle
Maybe it’d be helpful
If someone
