Lincoln Avenue

Well I guess this is where I left my life
 And all its operations
 And I know that I will never get this twice
 With all negotiations
 This feels like the place between what is and might have been
 So I guess this is where we both find out
 If this was meant to be
 And I'll tell myself, I don't need you
 I'll tell myself enough to get me through
 But I'll finally show you how I should have been being with you everyday
 If you can take a little more
 Now it takes me back to times on Lincoln Avenue
 When you said you'd never get tired of the boy
 That seemed to be so far from growing up
 But we were different then
 This feels like the place between being ready and being in the way
 And I'll tell myself, I don't need you
 I'll tell myself enough to get me through
 But I'll finally show you how I should have been being with you every day
 If you can wait a little more
 ♪
 This feels like the time that I'm ready for you
 Are you ready for me
 'Cause I'll tell myself I'll make it through
 I'll tell myself anything to get over you
 And I won't blame you, but I'm finally ready to show you
 That I'm ready to show you, I'm ready to show you, yeah
 I'll tell myself that I never needed anybody anyway
 But anyway I need you
 I need you now
 I need you now
 I'm ready now
