Lyrics

40 Days

40 days and I miss you
I'm so high that I've lost my mind
It's the summer I'm thinking of
40 days and I'm blown away
If I saw something good
I guess I wouldn't worry
If I saw something good
I guess I wouldn't care

You said you're always sleeping
But if so, I'll be leaving
It's just that I'm always falling
And it makes me feel bad
Yeah
If I saw something good
I guess I wouldn't worry
If I saw something good
I guess I wouldn't care

Used to try and watch you
I'd center on the way that you smile
I don't know
Used to try and watch you
I'd center on the way that you smile
I don't know
Summer air and I want you
I center on the way that you smile
I don't know
Summer air and I want you
I center on the way that you smile
I don't know
