you should know by now

You should know by now

It's hard for me to ignore you

It's hard to believe, but I've tried to

You should know by now

I wouldn't just hear that and pretend I didn't

You couldn't just say that, but of course you did, and

Here is my reply

I also wish there was a way

A way to relight the fire

Or a better time for us to try

You should know by now

You're my best friend and I wouldn't change it

Not the time, not the place, I won't blame it

You should know by now

I wouldn't just hear that and let myself go

About my day without putting on a show

So here's what I have to say

'Cause there's always something, isn't there?

Won't run out, can't keep 'em away

And you're wrong about me being okay

If you wonder if you're on my mind

The short answer's you're there all the time

Taking up space that should be mine

But I'm not complaining, waiting for a sign

That you should leave, but currently

I'm not getting anything that's telling me

That I can't mourn you

You should know by now

That I love you in more ways than one

And you're one stubborn son of a gun

'Cause you're still here

After it's all said and done

But I'm glad you're around

I'm glad you're here now

I'm glad you're here now

Hmm
