about

Kowabunga is making a comeback in our everyday language. Also TMNT is Andreas's favorite comic series. This song is about a girl he slept with who didn't tell him she had a boyfriend.

lyrics

Verse 1:
Hear a buzzing you pick up and answer, "Hello?"
I'm awoken in the dark by the cell phone's glow.
"Hi sweetie,"
Head's beating.
"I won't be this evening."
What the hell is it that I am hearing?

Pre-Chorus:
And you say that I'll be fine, that he won't miss you for the night.
And I guess that I just didn't care, or that you didn't care to share.
So you hand your phone back to me,
But it's ringing again, and I can't sleep.

Chorus 1:
'Cause now I'm next to his picture by your bed.
I'm not sure if I can get him outta my head.
Bite my lip and make my knees go weak.
Scratch my back and pull up the sheets.

Stop saying tonight is just about you and me,
That this isn't a breach of your honesty.
It's okay it's alright, I didn't think this through.
It's him on the phone, I'll hand it back to you.

Verse 2:
And does he know that I exist?
And have you told him about how we kissed?
And what do you say when he calls?
And what will you do when he falls...

Pre-chorus:
For you.
Just like I fell too.

Chorus 2:
And now I'm living with this guilt I can't shed,
But it's not like I'm getting out of your bed.
I'll keep coming back for 3 more weeks.
I'll even start missing the smell of your sheets.

Stop saying that night was about you and me,
And that not telling keeps you honest see,
He's put all of his faith in you.
And now I'm not sure what I should do.

Bridge:
"'Cause he's gone, and he's wrong."
So I'll just sit here playing along,
To another melody, notes on precision.
This was your decision, not my vision.

And does he know that I exist?
And have you told him about how we kissed?
And what do you say when he calls?
And what will you do when he falls...
