lyrics

Well, it only started raining
Once you got there
And your teammates are complaining
'Cause they've heard it before
You know that you're a player
But they're not keeping score
Makes you wonder,
Was that thunder?

And it feels like
Watching three strikes cross the mat
It must be the bat

The message was delivered
So it got there
It's been over half an hour
So she's read it, you're sure
You're feeling pretty dour
Lying down on the floor
Makes you wonder,
Do you love her?

And it feels like
She might never text you back
She must be in class

Heartbreak and sorrow
But for all I know
Might be tomorrow that I meet her
Loving creature

And it feels like
Living this life might not be so bad
It's the best I have
