Swimmer

You were a swimmer in your college days
Think I was learning how to drive back then
You were a killer, or so you keep telling me
Yeah, we're still talking 'bout the people you've been, mm

I take the high road, I say, "How interesting"
I say that you make me think
I take the spare room, I hope for the real thing
You say, "Hi," in the morning, you say

I could love you baby, but I don't have the time
I'm too busy living in the back of my mind
I wanna be a big star, is that such a crime?
I swear I think I love you, I just don't have the time right now

I found a letter from your college flame
You made it look just like an accident
Well, does it do it for you when I don't know what to say?
I wasn't bitter, but I should've been, mm

I take the high road, I say that she's crazy
That makes two of us, I think, you say

I could love her maybe, but I don't have the time
I'm too busy living in the back of my mind
I wanna be a big star, is that such a crime?
I swear I think I love you, I just don't have the time

Well, you think you're so good for not leaving it
And I think you're lying when you say I can't handle this
Baby, you're right, but that's none of your business
You've got no dog in this fight if you can't even feel it

'Cause you could love me, baby, but you're caught in a lie
And I can't keep living in the back of your mind
So go and be a big star, you'll get what's mine
I swear I never loved you, I just thought I should try

Yeah, I could love you baby, but I don't have the time (don't have the time)
I'm too busy living in the back of my mind (back of my mind)
I wanna be a big star, is that such a crime?
I swear I think I love you, I just don't have the time
