The Things We Want

The Things We Want Lyrics

10 minutes I'm on the ground
3 hours of air plane sounds
Jet lagged with a heavy bag
she'll be waiting at the gate
A smile like a Summer day
And a heart to match her face
I can't say I feel the same
When I hear another name
I know somebody wants me
But they're not the one I love
I know the feeling too well
Or the lack thereof
And sorry isn't quite enough
Isn't fair or makes the cut
We never get the things
We want too much
I've been told to play the game
Toss around a different name
I don't think I like that song
No one wants to be a pawn
I know somebody wants me
But they're not the one I love
I know the feeling too well
Or the lack thereof
And sorry isn't quite enough
Isn't fair or makes the cut
We never get the things
We want too much
Is it me that she loves
or just the thought of us
Am I in the same boat
have we dug the same hole?
I know somebody wants me
But they're not the one I love
I know the feeling too well
Or the lack thereof
And sorry isn't quite enough
Isn't fair or makes the cut
We never get the things
We want too much

10 minutes I'm on the ground
3 hours of air plane sounds
Jet lagged with a heavy bag
she'll be waiting at the gate
A smile like a Summer day
And a heart to match her face
I can't say I feel the same
When I hear another name
I know somebody wants me
But they're not the one I love
I know the feeling too well
Or the lack thereof
And sorry isn't quite enough
Isn't fair or makes the cut
We never get the things
We want too much
I've been told to play the game
Toss around a different name
I don't think I like that song
No one wants to be a pawn
I know somebody wants me
But they're not the one I love
I know the feeling too well
Or the lack thereof
And sorry isn't quite enough
Isn't fair or makes the cut
We never get the things
We want too much
Is it me that she loves
or just the thought of us
Am I in the same boat
have we dug the same hole?
I know somebody wants me
But they're not the one I love
I know the feeling too well
Or the lack thereof
And sorry isn't quite enough
Isn't fair or makes the cut
We never get the things
We want too much
