I forgot how much it sucks
To be in love
To feel the fire burning in my stomach
While she feels nothing at all
And I lose
My ambition
As I assume my rightful position
As a disposable friend
I've written 17 letters
That her green eyes will never read
Keep finding the pebbles
From the beach where she let it be
I'm slipping away from my conviction to stay
Patient as I wait for the one
And she never comes
All my buddies think I'm quite the catch
This late in the game
But every time I think somebody likes me back
She finds out I'm strange
I'm not saying she's wrong
I eat Pop Tarts and write songs
For a living
And I've written 17 letters
That her green eyes will never read
Keep finding the pebbles
From the beach where she let it be
And I'm slipping away from my conviction to stay
Patient as I wait for the one
And she never comes
So I shipped off to Cheyenne to meet another girl in case
She never comes around and I can't escape
My unrequited broken heart I'm single and in love
With every girl who can never be the one
My meals are cheap and I can chase my dream
Oh it's really not half bad
To be young and free when my friends are married
Till I'm solo at a movie
And I've written 17 letters
That only my eyes will ever read
And I'm finding the pebbles
From the Pop Tarts in my leather seats
And I'm slipping away from my conviction to stay
Patient as I wait for the one
One day she'll
Come
Bada dum dum dum
Oh Ana I fall into love with the fantasy
The dream of my twenties
Kissing ghosts in the Lillies
Oh I'm never enough
Single and in love
With the one
Bum buh duh day
My unrequited broken heart
I'm single and in love
