Linger

[Verse 1]

I was in Austin

Hanging with my old friends

They’re showing me pictures

Bonfires and cigarettes

So now the guilt is starting

'Cause I wanted to be there

And I got what I wanted

But I wanna be a kid again

[Chorus]

I should've lingered a little more

I should've stayed up

Watching the stars from the patio floor

I traded shoes on a wire for jet planes

Head’s in the clouds but I’m back in the old days

Where I linger a little more

[Verse 2]

Stumblin' through Nashville

Not a soul on the sidewalk

My friends usеd to call me

My friends used to wanna talk

But now I’m too busy

Or at lеast that’s what they’re telling themselves

Went from, "How are you doin’?"

To, "I hope that you're well"

[Chorus]

I should've lingered a little more

I should've stayed up

Watching the stars from the patio floor

I traded shoes on a wire for jet planes

Head’s in the clouds but I’m back in the old days

Where I linger a little more

[Bridge]

And maybe I’m still in the back of their minds

'Cause I keep them all at the front of mine

[Chorus]

I should've lingered a little more

I should've stayed up

Watchin' the stars from the patio floor

I, I traded shoes on a wire for jet planes

Head’s in the clouds but I’m back in the old days

Where I linger a little more

[Outro]

Yeah, linger a little more

Uh, no, I linger a little more

I-I-I linger a little more

Uh-nuh-uh I linger a little more, ey
