To all those listening, this is my story

About a confused girl and a boy that's boring

So either look at me, stupid and awkward

But you leave and can make things much better

So she'll run away from the problems

She knows distance can't make hearts follow

Five more days and counting before you start packing

Can't give me three good reasons why we can't get back to square one

So can you tell me to my face, stop lying

Its every three or four tries

And now five days are gone

I've got a recipe, it's for disaster

Because that's all I see in my near future

She's got the blond hair, but not the blue eyes

I've got the right girl, but at the wrong time

I've seen better days, maybe even weeks

When I think of you, you're thinking of me

Five more days and counting before you start packing

Can't give me three good reasons why we can't get back to square one

So can you tell me to my face, stop lying

Its every three or four tries

And now five days are gone

And you said you'd always come back

So where are you now?

I'm not ready for the letdown

Will you be right back?

And you said you'd always come back

So where are you now?

I'm not ready for the letdown

Will you be right back?

I've seen better days, maybe even weeks

When I think of you, you're thinking of me

Five more days and counting before you start packing

Can't give me three good reasons why we can't get back to square one

So can you tell me to my face, stop lying

Its every three or four tries

And now five days are gone
