Touchy Subject (Acoustic)

[Verse 1] I have this dream, one recurring theme that I try to ignore A decade away, we meet in a grocery store (Ohh, oh) And you look the same with just a few greys A blonde little girl who tugs on your shirt And she looks nothing like me (Ohh, oh) [Pre-Chorus] Guess it's been a while and she has your smile And I don't look back after I turn the aisle I'm stood by the parking, when I taste my heartbeat And drop to my knees and wake up [Chorus] I couldn't wish congratulations 'Cause I choke on the words when I say 'em I'm afraid it's not a dream Now it's so bittersweet 'Cause I'm happy wе met but I'm glad she was next Now I'm nothing but a touchy subjеct It's for the best (Ohh, ohh) [Verse 2] I have this fear the off-and-on years would slow and finally end And you've settled down and now it's permanent (Ohh, oh) And now you don't call or miss me at all I've finally patched up the holes in the wall I guess it's nothing really (Ohh, oh) [Pre-Chorus] 'Cause it's been a while and gold's not my style But she pulls it off 'cause I'm not versatile I'm stood by the garden, till death do you part And I can't speak so I hold my peace [Chorus] I couldn't wish congratulations 'Cause I choke on the words when I say 'em I'm afraid it's not a dream Now it's so bittersweet 'Cause I'm happy we met but I'm glad she was next Now I'm nothing but a touchy subject It's for the best (Ohh, ohh) [Bridge] A white baby gate fixed in my hallway Stays haunting the house with the angels we made It wasn't our time, at least wasn't mine But if souls return then tell them I said hi [Chorus] I couldn't wish congratulations 'Cause I choke on the words when I say 'em I'm afraid it's not a dream (Dream) Now it's so bittersweet 'Cause I'm happy we met but I'm glad she was next Now I'm nothing but a touchy subject It's for the best (Ohh, ohh) [Outro] I'm happy we met but I'm glad she was next Now I'm nothing but a touchy subject It's for the best
