I was eighteen, so were you I was that birkenstock geek rock dude You were the back-flip, doe-eyed Tree-climbing earth mama Beautiful evergreen girl I never thought that I could be Getting my grey hairs with you beside me And there's something I'm blind to But you still see And it couldn't be better, I know And it shouldn't be easier, oh I should just stop waiting for the other boot to fall I want to be the toy in your cereal box I want to be carter at your peace talks I want to get almost too familiar But still notice the way that you walk And if you said you were going away I'd run on the tarmac And I would lay down in front of the plane Just to get you to stay 'Cause it couldn't be better, I know And it shouldn't be easier, oh I should just stop waiting for the other boot to fall Got everything i'd ever wanted here Everything and then this constant fear Sure I'm gonna lose it all Just waiting for the other boot to fall And if you thought I could be replaced I wouldn't just stop with an ear I would cut off my whole fucking face Just to make my point clear That it couldn't be better, I know It shouldn't be easier, oh I should just stop waiting for the other boot to fall Waiting for the other boot to fall
