alaska Lyrics

It was a tough spring

So I don't really want to hear

A single nice thing about it for you

How good it was for you

You stopped loving your music

Stopped loving your muse

And everything that went with the two

But these melodies don't cease to be without you

And I want to call you

But it's three AM in Alaska

And I don't even know

What I'd ask ya now

I wanted to kiss you

Not just New Year's Eve

But the whole year through and

The truth is

The truth is I'm not better without you

I'll be the bad guy

If that's gonna help you sleep at night

You tangoed too

But I'd take the fall for you

If you really want me to

I stopped loving my body

Which is to say me

I got lost in the city

Forgot how to be

But these melodies follow relentlessly

And I want to call you

But it's three AM in Alaska

And I don't even know

What I'd ask ya now

I wanted to kiss you

Not just New Year's Eve

But the whole year through and

The truth is

The truth is I'm not better without you

Hey

It's been a long time

No talk no text

You doin' alright?

And do you still write

Your poetry

That was secretly not secretly

Always about me

Hey there, stranger

Just wanna make sure

That you're aware

I can't apologize

If I don't know my crimes

If you don't take a chance

Take a call

Pick up the line

So when you're ready

I'm in the city

That never sleeps

Watching the clock tick past Alaska three

You stopped loving your music

You became the muse

And look what the silence

Gave me space to do

'Cause these melodies

Sound just fine to me

Without you
