Lyrics[edit | edit source]

will i see you smiling
when i see you out the door
then i know i'm lying
then i know i'm out the door
i'm out the door

then i know
that i'm really fucked
then i know that i'm gone

what you do
yeah, i love you too
and i know i'm what you want
what i do
yeah, i love you too
and you're all than i want
oh

what it is, i know then
what it is, i know is true
talk about you
when i want, i'm feeling
what i know i'm seeing to
talk about you

what it is
i don't really know
what it is doesn't show

what you'll do
yeah, i love you too
can i see you to the door
what you'll do
yeah, i love you too
and i'll see you to the door
doo doo doo doo doo

[whistling]

([laughs] keep 'em rolling, wooo)
