At your parents for the day
You′ll be 24 in May
We've been on and off a couple monthsAnd your mom set out the tablecloth
Talkin′ Jesus over tea
And she's starin' right at me
Like I′m some sort of anti-Christ
For teachin′ you there's more to life
Than bein′ where you are
But you don't know where to start
So I try to fix
The glue never sticks
I thought you could be anyone
Anyone but this
′Cause you're a supernova
And I wish that you could see
That the hardest part of loving you, it seems
Is that I love who you could be
You′ve been working for a wage
You say, "It's a little phase"
That you're goin′ through a reset
But it′s been that way since we met
I wish I didn't doubt
That maybe this time you′ll come around
See your future is an open door
But I can't unlock the key to yours
′Cause I'll love you until the end
But I can′t do this again
So why try to fix?
The glue never sticks
I thought you could be anyone
Anyone but this
'Cause you're a supernova
And I wish that you could see
That the hardest part of loving you, it seems
Is that I love who you could be
