Lyrics

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Oh-oh

Verse 1

Saw you leaning on the corner store wall

Summer heat had everybody moving slow

You flipped your hair and the sidewalk shimmered

I forgot the name of the street I was on

You said hello like you already knew me

Like we'd been friends since a hundred years back

I laughed too loud at a joke that wasn't funny

Just to keep you standing there talking to me

Pre-Chorus

One step closer

Two steps back

My whole evening

Jumped the track

Chorus

Something about you pulls me sideways

Something about you feels like home

Sun through the window

Warm and slow

Something about you I don't want to know

Something about you pulls me sideways

Something about you stays past June

If you go

Let me know

Something about you won't leave me alone

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh

Verse 2

We drove the backroads till the tank ran thin

Shared a paper cup of lukewarm tea

You hummed a tune I couldn't quite place

Some old song your mother used to sing

I'm not the type to make a big scene

I keep my feelings in a zippered pocket

But you sat close and the windows fogged up

And I stopped pretending I was fine

Pre-Chorus

One step closer

Two steps back

My whole evening

Jumped the track

Chorus

Something about you pulls me sideways

Something about you feels like home

Sun through the window

Warm and slow

Something about you I don't want to know

Something about you pulls me sideways

Something about you stays past June

If you go

Let me know

Something about you won't leave me alone

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh

Bridge

Call me careless

Call me slow

Call me anything you want

I just wanted you to know

Chorus

Something about you pulls me sideways

Something about you feels like home

Sun through the window

Warm and slow

Something about you I don't want to know

Something about you pulls me sideways

Something about you stays past June

If you go

Let me know

Something about you won't leave me alone

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh
