I can't explain it I'm afraid of noise
And all this time still afraid of boys
It's in the winter
It's in my head
Well don't look now
I think it's under my bed

And we drop drop tears like tallymarks
And it builds like snow and it keeps us apart
And I drop drop tears like tallymarks
And I'm keeping score so I keep us apart

But I think I might miss you enough to say so
And I think I already did
Well I think I might miss you enough to say so
There you go I just said it again

That same winter my old man made tracks
And I did too but I came back
So don't don't don't explain love to me
Love love love is not why we leave
It is real life dreams, make-believe people
You can't build cathedrals out of finger steeples

And we drop drop tears like tallymarks
And it builds like snow and it keeps us apart
And I drop drop tears like tallymarks
And I'm keeping score so I keep us apart

But I think I might miss you enough to say so
And I think I already did
Well I think I might miss you enough to say so
There you go I just said it again
There you go I just said it again

Steady on steady on steady on my mind
Steady on my mind
Steady on steady on steady on my mind
Steady on my mind

Surely surely I
Surely surely I want love just as bad as the next
But deeper down in my, deeper down in my 
Bones
Is where it sets

And we drop drop tears like tallymarks
And it builds like snow and it keeps us apart
And I drop drop tears like tallymarks
And I'm keeping score so I keep us apart

But I think I might miss you enough to say so
And I think I already did
Well I think I might miss you enough to say so
There you go I just said it again
There you go I just said it again
