The List

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Isla recommended Cole to me He sounded sweet So I hung him up on the door And seeing as our homes are pretty far And you broke my heart I think of Cole more and more [Verse 2] Angel told me rather two than none "Honestly," she said, "you're owed some fun" Maybe best that we don't try again Such a shame that a start means an end [Verse 3] Last October I got mad You ignored our plans So I drank with Joe all night And two weeks on, I still felt his heat So I turned my cheek He mustn't think me very nice [Verse 4] And weekends have my hands in Molly's hair Edging closer in the open air Older feelings coming flooding back No, I don't want to have to look at that [Chorus] Brag and boast, as I might I still sleep alone every night Take a hint, let me go Hold on harder, I don't know Do you cast a net as wide as I? Do you keep a list for a lonely mind? And does it feel even colder to hold her When you miss me? [Verse 5] Thomas calls me when it's still outside And my face looks tired But I only care a bit I truly see him in a softer light Still wonder if we might But Christ, I cannot count on it [Verse 6] A flirt with Katie down the lens And I pretend To want her more than you A stick and poke and then an awkward kiss In a moment missed I'd have her if I could have you too [Verse 7] And Eddie told me after Isla'd gone "Honestly," he said, "you're all I want" Laid out on my bed, I must admit While he shook like a leaf, I had to think of it [Chorus] Brag and boast, as I might I still sleep alone every night Take a hint, let me go Hold on harder, I don't know Do you cast a net as wide as I? Do you keep a list for a lonely mind? Does it feel even colder to hold her When you miss me?
