like the memory from your mother's house from before you got too old
like the feeling from a photograph before it's meanings all got told
the words I say can be silver, but what's left unsaid can be gold
so get to know me once I go away
maybe 'cause I come from such an empty-hearted town
or maybe 'cause some love of mine had really let me down
but the only time I am lonely is when others are around
I just never end up knowing what to say
if I wanted someone to clean me up, I'd find myself a maid
if I wanted someone to spend my money, I wouldn't need to get paid
if I wanted someone to understand me, I'd have so much more to say
I want you to make the days move easy
I took everything I thought from what it means to be a man
we need words to be put to what we do not understand
while you lean into the echoes and you do not raise a hand
oh woman, help me see it like it is
if I wanted someone to clean me up, I'd find myself a maid
if I wanted someone to spend my money, I wouldn't need to get paid
if I wanted someone to understand me, I'd have so much more to say
I want you to make the days move easy
if I wanted someone to clean me up, I'd find myself a maid
if I wanted someone to spend my money, I wouldn't need to get paid
if I wanted someone to understand me, I'd have so much more to say
I want you to make the days move easy
if I wanted someone to clean me up, I'd find myself a maid
if I wanted someone to spend my money, I wouldn't need to get paid
if I wanted someone to cut me down, I'd have handed you the blade
I want you to make the days move easy
I just want you to make the days move easy
