See You Around
Dylan Jakobsen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If were gonna make it out alive
You tell me that you're just done trying
When all we do is fight
We used to turn up all the speakers
Driving down the country road
Singing songs about our future
But now I'm singing them alone
I don't know if it's working out
And all that we had is it worth it now
Well we fight and we curse and it only gets worse
And I drive out of town
When all that we had is coming down
I'll see you around
Well what's the use of ever loving
When she don't love you anymore
I spent my days searching for something
But now that somethings out the door
And she's leaving in the morn'
I don't know if it's working out
And all that we had is it worth it now
Well we fight and we curse and it only gets worse
And I drive out of town
When all that we had is coming down
I'll see you around
But now you're leaving and I'm not even gonna try
Cause we just can't get it right
Every now and then I'll see your face,
You walk right by, stare into space,
I guess I'll see you around someday
I don't know if it's working out
And all that we had is it worth it now
I don't know if it's working out
And all that we had is it worth it now
Well we fight and we curse and it only gets worse
And I drive out of town
When all that we had is coming down
I'll see you around
