I walk these streets so aimlessly
I walk into the wrong party
Guided by a ghost that won’t let me be
So I put on my coat, drive out to sea
Forget just where I was supposed to be
Wherever that might be you should be there with me
So I call on your phone
Just to see if you’re still feeling alone
And I keep you up for hours ‘till you crack a smile
And if it all works out
If things go according to plan
Maybe we won’t fall in love
And we’ll remain best friends
And if it all works out
We won’t fall in love
I check my mail, I check my phone
It makes me forget I’m all alone
Driving my lonely way back home
Pretend we’re not worlds apart
Keeping your letters close to heart
I keep my heart away from false starts
Toblerone, jelly beans, twenty different flavors of ice cream
I want it all but I don’t want what isn’t mine
And if it all works out
If things go according to plan
Maybe we won’t fall in love
And we’ll remain best friends
And if it all works out
We won’t fall in love
And if it all works out
Maybe we won’t fall in love
And we can hold our heads high
So we can look above
These clouds of doubt that keep hanging over our heads
Think I’ll be contemplating your love ‘till I’m dead
