What I Might Say

Linus's Lunchbox

No one could keep me from

Screaming out your name.

Flowers and candy till

Your bored with things I say.

Laughing at what I do

To show that I'm not done.

Being there

Your asking for more good advice.



I'm scared of pleasant surprises.

You'd say that my voice is changing.



I'm scared of road side mirages.

You'd say that my voice is changing.



What I might say.

What I might say.

No one had wanted you, but if you need me to.

What I might say.



During our game of gin

I would let you cheat.

Watching you grow inside

From your victory.

Talks will be hours long

So you won't get bored.

Meeting you at your house

Just to comb your hair.



I'm scared of your perfect form apart from your mistakes.

I'm scared that my voice is changing.



What I might say.

What I might say.



No one could keep me from

Screaming out your name.

Not even for a dime

I would go away.

Mix-tapes and burned cds

I would make for you.

So you'd remember me

from twelve through past noon.

Being there

From twelve through noon.



What I might say.

What I might say.

No one had wanted you, but if you need me to.

No one had wanted you, but if you need me to.



What I might say.
