  • You ask how many more days
    And i say 42
    Till i move back to Nashville
    Said you've been counting too
    It's strange how in November
    It'll be a year of missing you
    I almost can't believe it
    I get to see you soon
    More than just visit i'll be living 10 from you
    I'm praying that we'll pick up
    Right where we left off in that back room
    So tell all the girls you've been kissing that they had a good run
    But it's all over and through
    Tell them that your little lady's moving back to the city
    And that it's not them…
    It's that i finally get to have you
    In your penthouse with the bad view
    And my tooth brush in your bathroom
    You can tell i'm tryna act cool
    But do i finally get to have you?
    Met you in the red lights
    Laughing like a kid
    The first time that you kissed me
    I got back my innocence
    Took two week till i'm leaving
    Now 4 shoes on the front porch all makes sense
    It all makes sense
    And if i never left, we wouldn't be on the phone
    I'd be sleeping on your chest, not this king size alone
    And we'd be more than a picture we drew up in our heads
    And i'd finally get to give you my best
    And i'd tell the boys i've been kissing that they had a good run
    But it's all over and through
    I'd tell them that your little lady's moving back to the city
    And that it's not them…
    It's that you finally get to have me
    Almost naked in your backseat
    You bite my lip cause I keep laughing
    Never felt this fucking happy
    And now you finally get to have me
