You wanna make out in the back of this dirty taxi You know I get car-sick sitting in the back seat So I just bend my arms back And hold your hand awkwardly After all these years it's weird you still see something in me I don't know how to say "I love you" All that I know is do the dishes when I get home I don't know how to say "I love you" And after all this time, I'm glad I'm by your side I dream about you every night but push you off the bed before you wake You fall on the floor laughing grateful That your got the chance to sleep in late You've got nowhere to be And your in love with me I feel it in the way you lay down right back next to me I don't know how to say "I love you" But it's time to grab your coat 'Cause I've got tickets to the Mountain Goats I don't know how to say "I love you" I could stand to learn a thing or two from from John Darnielle When a problem's this absurd You've gotta put in the work When a problem's this absurd The only thing to do is open up Our pickled skulls and look inward I don't know how to be alone, but that's fine 'Cause we're social animals and we're far from home When I'm with you it's hard to feel sad You fill my heart with major chords And I guess I'm not so bad so I'm gonna learn how to say "I love you" I'm gonna learn how to say "I love you" I'm gonna learn how to say "I love you" I'm gonna learn how to say "I love you" I'm gonna learn how to say "I love you" From a shitty motel, till the day we're down in Hell I'm gonna learn how to say "I love you" Like starry nights right now when we're drunk at the waffle house I'm gonna learn how to say "I love you" Cleaning your apartment, getting wine drunk with your parents I'm gonna learn how to say "I love you" Handcuffed to the cop car smiling in the rear view mirror I'm gonna learn how to say "I love you" I'm gonna learn how to say "I love you" I'm gonna learn how to say "I love you" I'm glad I'm by your side
