☆ Nina

I met you when I was a teen
But then you were one as well
And I could play a guitar
Just like ringing a bell
Sometimes I wonder
In any other summer could you have been my part time lover
To me listening to Stevie Wonder
Under the covers where we used to lay
And Re: Stacks is what the speakers play
I’d be on tour almost every day
When I was home up in my flat is where we used to stay

Just watching a DVD, smoking illegal weed
Getting high as two kites when we needed to breathe
We’d use each other’s air just for the people to see
And stay up all night like when we needed to sleep
We’d go anywhere, our minds would take us
And I’d say you were beautiful without your make-up
And you don’t even need to worry about your weight ’cause
We can all be loved the way that God made us
And time’s the only reason that we could break up
‘Cause you would always tell me I’m away too much
Distance is relative to the time that it takes to get on a plane
Or make a mistake, say it again

Oh Nina
You should go Nina
‘Cause I ain’t never coming home
Nina oh, won’t you leave me now
And I’ve been living on the road Nina
But then again you should know Nina
‘Cause that’s you and me both
Nina oh, won’t you leave me now
Now

And every weekend in the winter
You’d be wearing my hoodie
With draw strings pulled tight
To keep your face from the cold
Taking day trips to the local
Where we’d eat on our own
‘Cause every day when I was away
We’d only speak on the phone

Watching Blue Planet
Creating new habits
Acting as if we were two rabbits
And then you’d vanish back to the borough with all the Celtics
I disappear
You call me selfish, I understand
But I can’t help it
I put my job over everything
Except my family and friends
But you’ll be in between forever
So I guess we’ll have to take a step back
Overlook the situation
‘Cause mixing business and feelings will only lead to complications
And I’m not saying we should be taking a break
Just re-evaluating quick before we make a mistake and it’s too late
So we can either deal with the pain or wait to get on the plane
But in a day we’ll have to say it again

Love will come and love will go
But you can make it on your own
Sing that song, go, oh won’t you leave me now
People grow, and fall apart
But you can mend your broken heart
Take it back, go, oh won’t you leave me now

[2x]
Oh Nina
You should go Nina
‘Cause I ain’t never coming home
Nina oh, won’t you leave me now
And I’ve been living on the road Nina
And then again you should know Nina
‘Cause that’s you and me
Both in a road, won’t you leave me now
Now
