I’m Like a Lawyer with the Way I’m Always Trying to Get You Off (Me & You) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Last year's wishes are this year's apologies
Every last time I come home
I take my last chance to burn a bridge or two
I only keep myself this sick in the head 'cause I know how the words get you off
[Pre-Chorus]
We're the new face of failure
Prettier and younger, but not any better off
Bulletproof loneliness
At best, at best
[Chorus]
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you, if I woke up next to you
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you, if I woke up next to you
[Verse 2]
Collect the bad habits that you couldn't bear to keep
Out of the woods but I love
The tree I used to lay beneath, kissed teeth stained red
From a sour bottle baby girl with eyes the size of baby worlds
[Pre-Chorus]
We're the new face of failure
Prettier and younger, but not any better off
Bulletproof loneliness
At best, at best
Last year's wishes are this year's apologies
Every last time I come home
I take my last chance to burn a bridge or two
I only keep myself this sick in the head 'cause I know how the words get you off
[Pre-Chorus]
We're the new face of failure
Prettier and younger, but not any better off
Bulletproof loneliness
At best, at best
[Chorus]
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you, if I woke up next to you
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you, if I woke up next to you
[Verse 2]
Collect the bad habits that you couldn't bear to keep
Out of the woods but I love
The tree I used to lay beneath, kissed teeth stained red
From a sour bottle baby girl with eyes the size of baby worlds
[Pre-Chorus]
We're the new face of failure
Prettier and younger, but not any better off
Bulletproof loneliness
At best, at best
[Chorus]
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you, if I woke up next to you
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you, if I woke up next to you
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you, if I woke up next to you
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you, if I woke up next to you
[Bridge]
The best way to make it through with hearts and wrists intact
Is to realize two out of three ain't bad, ain't bad
[Outro]
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you, if I woke up next to you
Me and you, honeymoon
Setting in a honeymoon (A honeymoon)
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon (Honeymoon)
If I woke up next to you, if I woke up next to you
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon (Honeymoon)
If I woke up next to you, honeymoon...
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you, if I woke up next to you
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you, if I woke up next to you
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you, if I woke up next to you
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you, if I woke up next to you
[Bridge]
The best way to make it through with hearts and wrists intact
Is to realize two out of three ain't bad, ain't bad
[Outro]
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon
If I woke up next to you, if I woke up next to you
Me and you, honeymoon
Setting in a honeymoon (A honeymoon)
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon (Honeymoon)
If I woke up next to you, if I woke up next to you
Me and you, setting in a honeymoon (Honeymoon)
If I woke up next to you, honeymoon...
