lyrics

Does he talk to you in a way that makes you feel so small you could disappear
When you try to talk to him he's hangry and you don't know why
All your friends can't understand what you see in him but its what you can't see in yourself

And you're keeping up appearance
And it's not just for appearance
And you don't know what you're waiting on
And you've had a lot to think last night

Maybe one day soon there will come a time when you've finally had enough
You can start to think about things in a future tense and the good on the horizon
Maybe one day soon you'll learn to love yourself again

And you can't be happy with him
And God knows you got your reasons
And you don't know what you're waiting on
And you had a lot to think last night

And you're keeping up appearance
And it's not just for appearance
And you don't know what you're waiting on
And you had a lot to think
Well you had a lot to think
Yeah you had a lot to think
last night
