Staying home alone on a Friday
Flat on the floor looking back
On old love, or lack thereof
After all the crushes are faded
And all my wishful thinking was wrong
I'm jaded, I hate it
I'm tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
I'm so tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here, get here
Searching all my days just to find you
I'm not sure who I'm looking for
I'll know it when I see you
Until then, I'll hide in my bedroom
Just staying up all night just to write
A love song for no one
I'm tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
I'm so tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
I could have met you in a sandbox
I could have passed you on the sidewalk
Could I have missed my chance
And watched you walk away?
Oh, no way
I could have met you in a sandbox
I could have passed you on the sidewalk
Could I have missed my chance
And watched you walk away?
I'm tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
I'm so tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here, oh, yeah
I'm tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
I'm so tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
You'll be so good
You'll be so good for me
