Might be the only guy
Who didn't send it me hearted eyes
in reply to my latest story
In red lace lingerie I kiss you, but you shy away
Then roll to get your eight hours of sleep in
But you will never leave me
'cause to you we're more than fine
and I'm ticking all your boxes, oh, I play such a good wife
We work well on paper, we don't argue, we don't fight
But lighting scented candles just won't relight up our fire

And it ain't that bad, it's just not what I wanted
Don't wanna live this life half hearted
I want fireworks and flames
don't want safe, tame, practical
'Cause that ain't enough, that ain't love, no
we're just compatible

Your eyes never light up
when I spend all day dressing up for you to just say
"Don't make us late"
Try saying how I'm feeling
you said, "Not right now, I'm busy"
you don't know I'm slipping away
And I could dye my hair, go crazy
like getting blue highlights
and I don't think you'd notice
and you probably wouldn't look twice
I'm way too short and cute
to have to be the biggest spoon
but I refuse to feel all the distance

And it ain't that bad, it's just not what I wanted
Don't wanna live this life half hearted
I want fireworks and flames
don't want safe, tame, practical
'Cause that ain't enough, that ain't love, no
we're just compatible
Hmm, we're just compatible

Wish you would go do something I cannot forgive you for
Go sleep with my best friend
tell the police I broke the law
I need good enough to get up and out the door
And it's not dramatic it's just that we're average

And it ain't that bad, it's just not what I wanted
Don't wanna live this life half hearted
I want fireworks and flames
don't want safe, tame, practical
That ain't enough, that ain't love
We're not enough, we're not love, no, we're just compatible
Oh, we're just compatible
