It's been a couple months That's just about enough time For me to stop cryin' when I look at all the pictures Now I kinda smile, I haven't felt that in a while It's late, I hear the door Bell ringin' and it's pourin' I open up that door, see your brown eyes at the entrance You just wanna talk and I can't turn away a wet dog
But please don't ruin this for me Please don't make it harder than it already is I'm trying to get over this
I wish that you would stay in my memories But you show up today, just to ruin things I wanna put you in the past 'cause I'm traumatized But you're not lettin' me do that, 'cause tonight You're all drunk in my kitchen, curled in the fetal position Too busy playin' the victim to be listenin' to me When I say "I wish that you would stay in my memories" In my memories, stay in my memories
Now I can't say "Goodbye" if you stay here the whole night You see, it's hard to find an end to somethin' that you keep beginning Over and over again I promise that the ending always stays the same So there's no good reason in make believin' that we could ever exist again
I can't be your friend, can't be your lover Can't be the reason we hold back each other from falling in love With somebody other than me
I wish that you would stay in my memories But you show up today, just to ruin things I wanna put you in the past 'cause I'm traumatized But you're not lettin' me do that, 'cause tonight You're all drunk in my kitchen, curled in the fetal position Too busy playin' the victim to be listenin' to me When I say "I wish that you would stay in my memories" In my memories, stay in my memories
Since you came I guess I'll let you stay For as long as it takes To grab your books and your coat And that one good cologne That you bought when we were fighting 'Cause it's still on my clothes, everything that I own And it makes me feel like dying I was barely just surviving
I wish that you would stay in my memories But you show up today, just to ruin things I wanna put you in the past 'cause I'm traumatized But you're not lettin' me do that, 'cause tonight You're all drunk in my kitchen, curled in the fetal position Too busy playin' the victim to be listenin' to me When I say "I wish that you would stay in my memories" In my memories, stay in my memories
