The Romantic Way – Winnetka Bowling League

I’m sorry that I ever stepped away
I’m going outside of my comfort lines
And putting my humility on display
I’m never too proud to apologize

Oh, I swept your feet from under the bleachers
Punked your heart when you said, “I need ya”
So mainstream, oh, how could I be so lame?
I’m sorry, I’m sorry, okay
It’s funny how I still try
You’ve come and gone, you won’t come again
But I’ve gotta change your mind

I, I, I
Still hurt a little when I say your name
I can’t watch Atlanta or hear M.I.A
I’m outside your window the romantic way
And I don’t even care if it’s supposed to rain

There’s people falling in and out of love
Like you dye your hair color manic pink
Until it becomes too much to keep it up
You watch it all fade with the kitchen sink

And I swear sometimes that I must be dreaming
You were here until you were leaving
It’s the frame I freeze every single day
I’m sorry, so sorry, okay

It’s funny how I still try
And double down on the lottery
But I’m everything but fine

I, I, I
Still hurt a little when I say your name
Chew orbit mojito but it ain’t the same
I’m outside your window and I’m going to stay
And I don’t even care if it’s supposed to rain

Oh, we could go on and on, and on, and on
It still hurts a little when I say your name
It comes to you darling, I’ve got no restraint
I’m outside your window the romantic way
And I don’t even care if it’s supposed to rain

Cuffing season got me good this year
Made me wish you were here
Singing all your ’90s songs
I know that I was wrong
