I never cared about doing things the wrong way
even if I knew it bothered you
I never learned how to do things the right way
The pleasure in the way my ways annoyed you
I never could take joy in hurting someone
That was the old me; that's not me now
I only want to give you tea and breakfast
I only want to tell you what's allowed
But look again. The misery's knocking on our door
I should be busier. I never seem to get anything done
I cannot bring myself to walk in the park without you
The clouds are moving fast tonight. There's just something about it
You always want what you can't have. You like to work for it
You're in denial, but I talk too much about what's going on
I miss the fluttering, anticipating notes and pretty things
And any room that's empty, we can fill it all up
I never cared about doing things the wrong way
even if I knew it bothered you
Everyone knows sometimes people falter
But that's all they do is play pretend
You always want what you can't have. You like to work for it
You're in denial, but I talk too much about what's going on
I miss the fluttering, anticipating notes and pretty things
And any room that's empty, we can fill it all up
But look again. 'Cause misery's knocking on our door
I should be busier. I never seem to get anything done
I cannot bring myself to walk in the park without you
The clouds are moving fast tonight. There's just something about it
And we can fill it all up
