MUNA - Home By Now

heard that you were selling your piano and your car 
it feels so weird to not reach out and ask you how you are 
i wonder if you’re moving or if money’s just that tight
these are the kinds of questions to which i’ve resigned my rights 

ever since 
i decided
there were things that 
i needed that
you couldn’t give to me
but i’m still wondering 

would we have turned a corner if i had waited 
do i need to lower my expectations
if we’d kept heading the same direction
would we be home by
now i don’t know if i’d been okay with
holding out hope for your stack of rainchecks
if i had been able to grin and bear it
would we be home by now 

have you ever heard about how when a person’s in a maze 
they will tend to walk in circles thinking they are going straight 
they can’t see the bigger picture so they get stuck in a loop 
in the end i was afraid that that’s what you and i would do 

but i still 
have my moments 
where every reason  
feels a lot like an excuse 
i wanna ask you 

would we have turned a corner if i had waited 
do i need to lower my expectations
if we’d kept heading the same direction
would we be home by
now i don’t know if i’d been okay with
holding out hope for your stack of rainchecks
if i had been able to grin and bear it
would we be home by now 

what is love supposed to feel like anyway 
why is it so hot in la 
in late october 
said i don’t know  if it’s enough to make it last 
you said if i even had to ask 
you had your answer 

but i still wonder 

would we have turned a corner if i had waited 
do i need to lower my expectations
if we’d kept heading the same direction
would we be home by
now i don’t know if i’d been okay with
holding out hope for your stack of rainchecks
if i had been able to grin and bear it
would we be home by now
