I know you didn't think that loving me meant so much time alone Dinner for one on the couch, another movie on your own You know that I'm never gonna be a nine to five, that was never me I was born with a compass in my hand and a restless soul But when it hurts, when you can't take it And when the rubber band feels like it's breaking Hear the kick drum, that's my heart right there Let the melody run its fingers through your hair And my piano will kiss you slow tonight And my vocals tickle your ear And you almost can feel me here And my piano will kiss you slow tonight As far as ladies go, baby you should know you're so patient You're a thick skin, definition of low maintenance But it's enough, time goes by You can help but dim your light An empty house can make a cold heart feel so naked But when it hurts, when you can't take it And when the rubber band feels like it's breaking You hear the kick drum, that's my heart right there Let the melody run its fingers through your hair And my piano will kiss you slow tonight And my vocals tickle your ear And you almost can feel me here And my piano will kiss you slow tonight Yeah, oh, let me be your Be your second home for a while Home, all you've ever known So baby listen close for me inside And hear the kick drum, that's my heart right there Let the melody run its fingers through your hair When my piano will kiss you slow And hear the kick drum, that's my heart right there Let the melody run its fingers through your hair And my piano will kiss you slow tonight And my vocals tickle your ear And you almost can feel me here And my piano will kiss you slow tonight Will kiss you slow tonight Will kiss you slow tonight Will kiss you slow tonight
