Lauren-Michael Sellers - The Shelf Lyrics

Every time I
Close my eyes I
See your face from
Across the room
Took some time to realize
You and I would always end too soon

So don't ask me how
I've come to this conclusion
Cuz It's over now
And you're the one who's moving

On and on and on without me
Didn't take too long to see
Your arms wrapped around somebody
Else

So why you got me sitting here waiting
Waiting sitting here
Here on the shelf

On reserve like
I'm your favorite whiskey
Pour a tall one
When ya need something strong
Ain't it funny
You always come back to us
Like we're your favorite song

So don't ask me how
I've come to this conclusion
Cuz It's over now
And you're the one who's moving

On and on and on without me
Didn't take too long to see
Your arms wrapped around somebody
Else

So why you got me sitting here waiting
Waiting sitting here
Here on the shelf

And I don't understand
Why it is you can't
See my worth
So while you hesitate
I'm not gonna wait
For you to make your
Choice
Cuz I shoulda been first

So don't ask me how
I've come to this conclusion
Cuz It's over now
And you're the one who's moving

On and on and on without me
Didn't take too long to see
Your arms wrapped around somebody
Else

So why you got me sitting here waiting
Waiting sitting here
Here on the shelf
