Aerhart - The Diner (Give Me a Second) Lyrics

You held your head when you made the call
And I caught the eye of the waitress who smiled
You asked me to stay but why should I be strong
To keep following you in and out of love?
Don't close the tab
I'm trying to see this through
Hold up, give me a second... I... what are you saying?
(Need to let the news sink in my coffee cup)
I'm not seventeen and I know what I want
Right here? I need a second...
(chance to talk it through, be alone with you and make you take it back)
I'm in or I'm out, why're you f*cking it up?
How many vinyl split seats does this diner have?
I wanted to catch the words from your mouth
Kiss them and put them back into your mouth
But they fell to linoleum tile, I can't lie
I can't follow you in and out of love
(Ahhhhhh)
It's time to restart, I wouldn't take it this hard
If I had seen it coming
Put another one on, pick me up Major Tom
You know home is where the heart is
Oh but don't close the tab
I'm still opening up to you
Oh I won't let this go
No you can't have me if I can't have you
Give me a second....
I'm not seventeen and I know what I want
(Chance to feel it all, chance to wash my hands of you)
I'm in or I'm out, why're you f*cking it up?
(Chance to put a sugar in my coffee cup and spill it)
These halogen lights show how hollow this was
Give me a second...
(Chance to drink it in and dream again and think of what I've been a-missin')
You're not what I need and I know what I want
You're not what I need and you're f*cking it up
