[Verse 1] In spite of me,
She's watching old movies she knows I hate.
The actors sound the same.
I don't know what you see, but
I'm glad it makes you happy.
I'm using borrowed chords from a Springsteen song
im sorry dear it took too long
how to teach these clumsy fingers how to strum.

[Chorus] This is the second love song I wrote this year
And that's never happened.
It must be you dear.
So if you leave a light on
I'll come right in.
I'll try to keep it down
but you know how loud I am
Well, I don't wanna wake you up. You know I will.

You look just like Audrey
When you wear your pearls
In the photograph hung above our couch
You always catch me laughing
When you wear your curls
You got from fussing in the rain
You know you're pretty still.

[Chorus] This is the second love song I wrote this year
And that's never happened.
It must be you dear.
So if you leave a light on
I'll come right in.
I'll try to keep it down
but you know how loud I am
Well, I don't wanna wake you up. You know I will.
