Lyrics

Favourite Problem

I never wanted you to live like that
When I fall, I like to arch my back
On your heated floor I roll my eyes
If it's worth my time I can't decide
You get older while I stay the same
But my heart's still skipping when I see your name
On your heated floor I roll my eyes
If it's worth my time I can't decide

(It's okay to) want to
I love to ruin a friendship
Remember when it started?
Well, we could just enjoy it now
We'll never know, never know and the time it goes
I got enough to be getting on with
You'll never know 'cause you never let yourself grow
No, you never let yourself grow
Oh, no, you never let yourself grow
Oh

That turn in your stomach, that's me
That sinking in your heart, that's me
I'm the problem you love living with
'Cause I made you feel like you, I exist

(It's okay to) want to
I love to ruin a friendship
Remember when it started?
Well, we could just enjoy it now
We'll never know, never know and the time it goes
I got enough to be getting on with
You'll never know 'cause you never let yourself grow
No, you never let yourself grow
Oh, no, you never let yourself grow
Oh

And I how I want you
And how in every room
It's always you I'm heading to
It's always you I'm heading to

(It's okay to) want to
I love to ruin a friendship
Remember when it started?
Well, we could just enjoy it now
We'll never know, never know and the time it goes
I got enough to be getting on with
You'll never know 'cause you never let yourself grow
Oh, no, you never let yourself grow
Oh
Oh, no, you never let yourself grow
Oh, no, you never let yourself grow
Oh, no, you never let yourself grow
Oh
