I am your cherry at the end of the day Take the weight that you carry and put it all away But it's true what they say Bend enough you might break No people don't change And you give me you who are but not who you've been And all of those white picket fences were built to protect you from me Why can't you see? I'll never meet your parents I'll never drink their wine They'll never hang up a frame with our picture inside We'll never walk down the aisle And maybe that's alright So I'll keep the car running baby Meet me outside Sometimes you fight the shape your words make When you say that you're fine but you leave too much space ‘Cause it's true what they say You can run but you can't hide I know they taught you not to lie And you give me you who are but not who you've been And all of those white picket fences were built to protect you from me Why can't you see? I'll never meet your parents I'll never drink their wine They'll never hang up a frame with our picture inside We'll never walk down the aisle And maybe that's alright So I'll keep the car running baby Meet me outside Oh (oh) Oh (oh) Oh (oh) Ooh I'll never meet your parents I wouldn't waste their time No I'll keep the car running baby Meet me outside
