Bubble Gum

There's just some portraits you left and my sleeves Are getting stained with the paint that we left in the cans on the floor Last time you came over It's like we'd forget the mess is to clean It's like our love needs a glove and we didn't want to bother with the chore, no The portraits are staring me down This house isn't the same without you around So come back around, come back around We belong in a room of golly bubble gum colored walls with laughter ringing (Running in and out of them in fits of laughter) Way too long ago we misunderstood what we were about oh (Drowning out but ah we bounce back oh) So dust off the shelves Cause everything we felt In the darkest apartment where we stood on broken floor boards was worth it But then our picket fence fell And everytime you'd ring the bell Of my heart beating loud, hear the sound, we would handle it like cheap landlords We should restart it, start it from scratch Write a new chapter, make a new batch So we could finally sing at last Like Etta James' my girl, sing it, play it full blast We belong in a room of golly bubble gum colored walls with laughter ringing (Running in and out of them in fits of laughter) Way too long ago we misunderstood what we were about oh (Drowning out but ah we bounce back oh) You threw the ball in my yard, but i was hiding inside of the house Behind walls that were covered in plaster Just need to clean up the halls, get the foundation right Then I could out to find ya cause you Made me believe in love I'm so done throwing my fists in the dust We belong in a room of golly bubble gum colored walls with laughter ringing (Running in and out of them in fits of laughter) Way too long ago we misunderstood what we were about oh (Drowning out but ah we bounce back oh) So renovate, primer paint, it's a clean slate Portraits done staring me down with a straight face Renovate, don't fixate, you're my teammate Oh, we're gonna fix this house like a dream babe No we're not gonna leave it like that It's something we gonna get past You came back around You came back around
