I was supposed to be sent away But they forgot to come and get me 00:08

I was a functioning alcoholic Til nobody noticed my new aesthetic 00:17

All of this to say I hope you’re okay 00:28

But you’re the reason And no one here’s to blame 00:33

But what about your quiet treason? 00:42

And for a fortnight there We were forever 00:46

Run into you sometimes Ask about the weather 00:51

Now you’re in my backyard Turned into good neighbors 00:56

Your wife waters flowers I want to kill her. 01:01

All my mornings are Mondays Stuck in an endless February 01:15

I took the miracle move-on-drug The effects were temporary 01:25

And I love you It’s ruining my life 01:34

(I love you, it’s ruining my life) 01:39

I touched you For only a fortnight 01:44

(I touched you) But I touched you 01:49

And for a fortnight there We were together 02:14

Run into you sometimes Comment on my sweater 02:18

Now you’re at the mailbox Turned into good neighbors 02:23

My husband is cheating I want to kill him. 02:28

I love you It’s ruining my life 02:34

(I love you, it’s ruining my life) I touched you for only a fortnight 02:39

(I touched you) I touched you 02:49

I love you It’s ruining my life 02:54

(I love you, it’s ruining my life) I touched you for only a fortnight 02:59

(I touched you) I touched you 03:09

Thought of calling ya But you won’t pick up 03:15

Another fortnight lost in America 03:16

Move to Florida Buy the car you want 03:16

But it won’t start up Til you touch, touch, touch me 03:16

Thought of calling ya But you won’t pick up 03:16

Another fortnight lost in America 03:18

Move to Florida Buy the car you want 03:23

Lyrics:

[English]

I was supposed to be sent away But they forgot to come and get me

I was a functioning alcoholic Til nobody noticed my new aesthetic

All of this to say I hope you’re okay

But you’re the reason And no one here’s to blame

But what about your quiet treason?

And for a fortnight there We were forever

Run into you sometimes Ask about the weather

Now you’re in my backyard Turned into good neighbors

Your wife waters flowers I want to kill her.

All my mornings are Mondays Stuck in an endless February

I took the miracle move-on-drug The effects were temporary

And I love you It’s ruining my life

(I love you, it’s ruining my life)

I touched you For only a fortnight

(I touched you) But I touched you

Chorus

And for a fortnight there We were together

Run into you sometimes Comment on my sweater

Now you’re at the mailbox Turned into good neighbors

My husband is cheating I want to kill him.

I love you It’s ruining my life

(I love you, it’s ruining my life) I touched you for only a fortnight

(I touched you) I touched you

I love you It’s ruining my life

(I love you, it’s ruining my life) I touched you for only a fortnight

(I touched you) I touched you

Thought of calling ya But you won’t pick up

Another fortnight lost in America

Move to Florida Buy the car you want

But it won’t start up Til you touch, touch, touch me

Thought of calling ya But you won’t pick up

Another fortnight lost in America

Move to Florida Buy the car you want

But it won’t start up Til I touch, touch, touch you
