I get funny when you're around me

We always do dumb shit

And piss everybody off

Tell me where you'll be

And I'll leave my own party

It's probably a problem if it's this hard to stop

Now it's causing lots of issues with my baby at home

'Cause in every single picture we're a little too close

And I love you but I wanna, and it's making me feel unsure

So I can't have you around me anymore

Somehow we always end up naked

Nothing ever happens

But it still feels real good

And I wish she didn't

But I see why she hates it

She wants to be the only one who's allowed to look

It's the root of every issue, it's the reason we fight

And I don't wanna have to chose, but I'm taking a side

'Cause if it isn't me, who's gonna close that door?

So I can't have you around me anymore

There's places we went that I'll keep to myself

And you got to know me a little too well

But she'll never be someone I wish that I didn't know

Mhm

But she will never be you, but she keeps me on course

And I'm not supposed to wonder if I should be yours

So I can't have you around me anymore
