I Like You

Verse 1

Saw you laughing at the corner table

Your hand brushed his like it was nothing at all

I counted every second that I stood there

Biting down until my jaw went raw

Pre-Chorus

And I don't know why I stayed

Watching him take the words I never gave

Chorus

You're standing so close to him

Closer than you ever stood to me

You're standing so close to him

And I'm just a shadow on the street

Post-Chorus

(So close to him)

(So close to him)

Verse 2

I walked home with my fists inside my pockets

Kicking stones along the cracked old road

Every window showed a softer version

Of a life I'll never get to hold

Pre-Chorus

And I don't know how to say

That I wanted you in every quiet way

Chorus

You're standing so close to him

Closer than you ever stood to me

You're standing so close to him

And I'm just a shadow on the street

Post-Chorus

(So close to him)

(So close to him)

Bridge

Maybe I'm a coward

Maybe I'm a fool

Maybe I just waited

Till the waiting broke in two

Chorus

You're standing so close to him

Closer than you ever stood to me

You're standing so close to him

And I'm just a shadow on the street

Post-Chorus

(So close to him)

(So close to him)

(So close to him)

(So close to him)
