After a prolonged hug
You ask me how I am
I shrug and ask you about your family
You said, your brother’s engaged, 
it might be a mistake
And it broke your mother’s heart
The way we are,
The things we say when we’re trying not to fall apart

Has it been six months since I’ve seen you,
Fall, winter, spring
I say you’re looking great, 
Though I know you’ve gained weight
Which is a terrible thing to think
You say the silence between has torn me apart
I still want to know what you think about
The things we say,
The things we think
When we’re trying to figure it out

I ask you about the morning after our last night
After the night we got tired of having the same fight
I said I wandered for hours
Tears in my eyes, through the streets of bed stuy
You said that was the morning 
you finally learned to cry

The things we say
The way we sigh
When we know we’ve tried

My feet are tired
We’ve walked past midnight
You touch my hand 
when we start we’ve reached goodbye
I say, oh I wanna lay my 
head on your chest
And you nudge the collar under my neck

The things we say 
The things we say 
When it’s time to walk away
