lyrics

Call the Whole Thing On

All of those nights on the phone
Debating our favorite Ramones
I didn’t have the cojones
To tell you I want you, but now I’ll disclose:

Keeping mementos is just a distraction
That’s feeding the impulse to long for way back when
And seeing your dimples is sweet but it’s sinful
It’s not ever gonna happen

Let’s call the whole thing on again
This feeling’s a little too strong for just friends
Even if part of you longs for revenge
Let it go
We got nothing to show for it

I guess this is fooling me twice
I couldn’t take that advice
Shame’s an acceptable price
A re-run would be fun and that would suffice, ‘cause

Let’s call the whole thing on again
This feeling’s a little too strong for just friends
Even if part of you longs for revenge
Let it go
We got nothing to show for it

If mind right hindsight
Gives you perfect vision
Slow burn U-turns
Ain’t the worst decision
Sound off, let’s talk
Girl it’s worth a listen
Slow burn U-turns

It’s nightly
My memory gets sprightly
As if it’s out to spite me
And dear old Aphrodite
Has her two cents like

Let’s call the whole thing on again
This feeling’s a little too strong for just friends
Even if part of you longs for revenge
Let it go
We got nothing to show for it

If mind right hindsight
Gives you perfect vision
Slow burn U-turns
Ain’t the worst decision
Sound off, let’s talk
Girl it’s worth a listen
Slow burn U-turns
