Tandem Bike Lyrics - Singles - Ookla The Mok

She came into my room at two o'clock in the afternoon 

And she said that she had a desperate need 

To talk about our relationship 

and wasn't it time that we called it quits 

But she cried when I said that I kind of agreed 

I didn't know what to say 

I began to wish I was dead 

Crazy me crazy me 

I thought that she meant what she said 

She said she wanted to hear me say that I'd always want to be near her 

I asked, "Well why isn't that what you said?" 

She turned and cried some more and when she left she slammed the door 

Then I sighed with relief and sat down on my bed 

My jaw nearly hit the floor 

I couldn't believe my eyes 

Twenty minutes later when I opened the door 

And she was standing right outside 

I said, "Hey what the hell are you still doing here?" 

and she said, "Well 

I thought you were gonna come after me" 

I rolled my eyes and told her, "You should really be acting older 

You're thirty years old and I'm just twenty-three" 

CHORUS: 

Then she rode away 

On a bicycle built for two 

All alone 

To make her leave was beyond my power so we hugged for half an hour 

And I know for sure because I checked 

My cowboy secret space detective super hero radioactive 

Message decoding watch behind her neck 

Two hours later she finally left 

And this time she was really gone 

I sat done immediately 

And I began to write this song 

I was out on New Year's Eve and as I was getting ready to leave 

I saw her approach from across the bar 

So I pretended I was plastered, she found out and called me a bastard 

But she followed me home anyway in her car 

We argued right outside my door 

It was unbelievably cold 

My toes were getting kind of numb 

So I told her that I had to go 

Now I live in fear every time I see her coming near 

I try to hide but I can't get away 

I'm sick of lies and compromises averting eyes and wearing disguises 

She stalks me twenty-four hours a day 

CHORUS
