People Watching

[Verse 1]
That wasn't funny
But she laughed so hard, she almost cried
They're countin' months they've been together
Almost forty-nine
He's making fun of how she acted around the holidays
She wears a ring, but they tell people that they're not engaged
They met in class for metaphysical philosophy
He tells his friends I like her
'Cause she's so much smarter than me
They're having talks about their futures until 4AM
And I'm happy for them (I'm happy for thеm)

[Chorus]
But I wanna feel all that love and emotion
Be that attachеd to the person I'm holdin'
Some day I'll be falling, without caution
But for now I'm only people watchin'

[Verse 2]
I'm only looking just to live through you vicariously
I've never really been in love, not seriously
I had a dream about a house behind a picket fence
Next one I choose to trust, I hope I use some common sense
But I cut people out like tags on my clothin'
I end up all alone, but I still keep hopin'

[Chorus]
I wanna feel all that love and emotion
Be that attached to the person I'm holdin'
Some day I'll be falling, without caution
But for now I'm only people watchin'

[Bridge]
Cut people out like tags on my clothin'
I end up all alone, but I still keep hopin'
I won't be scared to let someone know me
Life feels so monotone, but I still keep hopin'
Cut people out like tags on my clothin'
I end up all alone, but I still keep hopin'
I won't be scared to let someone know me
Life feels so monotone, but I still keep hopin'
I feel love emotion

[Chorus]
I wanna feel all that love and emotion
Be that attached to the person I'm holdin'
Some day I'll be falling, without caution
But for now I'm only people watchin';
