Misbehave
Indigo Husk Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I must confess
I'm a little happier in my head
'Cause when I get dressed
Be my better yet
And when I'm in trouble
You're always there to bail me out
And when I'm seeing double
You're always there to help me out
I'm not the best guy, not the worst
But I know that I care the most
So tie your shoelace
Grab a suitcase
Lets turn around and head for the coast
I may be young but this is the new age
I know exactly where I really wanna go
I wanna know you
I wanna show you
I wanna show you what it's like to miss me
Hey, hey
So grab a cool beer
Leave you things here
Just come around and put up a chair
I spot a dry tear
I need a big cheer
Don't even wanna think about where
Between the heart ache
Between the mess made
Summer everything become a little clearer
I'm on the new [?]
And your the best thing
And i like it when you come a little near
I wanna know you
I wanna show you
I wanna show you what it's like to miss me
Hey, hey
I wanna take you
Oh so lets go soon
Lets go ahead, lets go ahead and miss me
Hey, hey
I wanna know you
I wanna show you
I wanna show you what it's like to miss me
Hey, hey
I wanna take you
Oh so lets go soon
Lets go ahead, lets go ahead and miss me
Hey, hey
