You said at the party that I was too drunk
I told you I liked you, you said, "Sober up"
But why would I lie? It′s so clear I'm in loveWith you
A tense conversation, you like someone else
I say, "If I waited, could that maybe help?"
You told me that patience won′t change how you felt
For me
So I'll stop being pretentious and loathing our friendship
You taught me a lesson, that love isn't precious
It′s not like the novels, no Pride and Prejudice at all
So I′ll just take a footnote in your life
And you could take my body
Every line I would write for you
But a footnote will do
A footnote will do
You ate at a restaurant, the host said we're cute
They think we′re a couple, they bought us some booze
We shared the Moscato and laughed 'cause it′s true
To me (to me)
Oh, and I'd be embarrassed if I weren′t so pleased
That everyone else sees what you never see
We're perfect together, but I'll never be
The one
So I′ll stop being pretentious and loathing our friendship
You taught me a lesson, that feelings are reckless
It′s just like the novels, side characters end up alone
So I'll just take a footnote in your life
And you could take my body
Every line I would write for you
But a footnote will do
A footnote will do
A footnote will do (please, don′t forget me)
(Forget me, please, don't forget me)
(Forget me, please, don′t forget me) a footnote will do
(Forget me, please, don't forget me)
(Forget) a footnote will do
A footnote will do
(Forget) a footnote will do
A footnote will do
