Did I Tell You (album version)

Let me briefly state things for which i am thankful
my fathr my mother my family ectcetera
the fact that there's water on top of the planet
the opportunity for me to walk in it
since it's the new year thanks for life in general
and the ability to take it if i want to
finally i give thanks to my closest aquaintence
that kid has so many new things
they know who this boy is
and i wish that they do
so i could stay
with them
did i tell you i don't think this'll work out
that i love you but i'm wanting something else
something close to me that i cannot forget
something farther away than i'd like to admit
i'd like to end it with an easy cliche
say in a phone call that "it's not you it's me"
than i could hang up and just push you away
in some music box with a sweet song to play
since it's a holiday i'll leave you alone
dial six numbers and then hang up the phone
a good excuse for me to watch and pospone
because you can't be hurt by what you don't know
oh and i wish
that you could be
so it would stop me from asking
but lend me your ear dear
did i tell you i don't think this'll work out
that i love you but i'm wanting something else
something close to me that i cannot forget
something farther away than i'd like to admit
admit
and let me tell you thatyou don't need to worry now
did i tell you i don't think this'll work out
that i love you but i'm wanting something else
something close to me that i cannot forget
something farther away than i'd like to admit
admit
admit
