it started with a whisper
it's you, i guess
outside my house at 3 am
consider this your last chance
now it seems
you're choking on each word you said to me
so write these words down
cause i know you won't hear me
nothing ever changes
you won't get over this
i'll keep you around
keep you in touch
keep you from not expecting this much
i'll keep you in mind
you're wasting time
you're asking me to come back here tonight
i'll keep you around
i'll keep you around
it's only 7:30, you already called
you're telling me "we're best friends" "we're perfect"
but i wouldn't agree to it
oh i guess we're cool for now
but you're begging for attention from anybody somehow
write these words down
cause i know you won't hear me
nothing's gonna change
you won't get over this
i'll keep you around
keep you in touch
keep you from not expecting this much
i'll keep you in mind
you're wasting time
you're asking me to come back here tonight
i'll keep you around
i'll keep you around
so get the picture when you're ahead
i got the message over my bed
i told you once, there's no excuse
you've renewed this wreck
i didn't want to tell you
i'll keep you around
i'll keep you around
keep you in touch
keep you from not expecting this much
keep you in mind
you're wasting time
you're asking me to come back here tonight
i'll keep you around
keep you from not expecting this much
i'll keep you in mind
you're wasting time
you're asking me to come back here tonight
ill keep you around
keep you in touch
keep you from not expecting this much
i'll keep you in mind
you're wasting time
you're asking me to come back here tonight
