Home By Now

Heard that you were selling your piano and your car

It feels so weird to not reach out and ask you how you are

I wonder if you're moving or if money's just that tight

These are the kinds of questions to which I resign my rights

Ever since I decided

There were things that I needed

That you couldn't give to me

But I'm still wondering

Would we have turned a corner if I had waited?

Do I need to lower my expectations?

If we'd kept heading the same direction

Would we be home by

Now I don't know if I'd been okay with

Holding out hope for your stack of rain checks

If I'd been able to grin and bear it

Would we be home by now?

By now

Home by now (home by now)

(Home by now)

But have you ever heard about how when a person's in a maze

They will tend to walk in circles thinking they are going straight

They can't see the bigger picture, so they get stuck in a loop

In the end, I was afraid that that's what you and I would do

But I still have my moments

Where every reason

Feels a lot like an excuse

I wanna ask you

Would we have turned a corner if I had waited?

Do I need to lower my expectations?

If we'd kept heading the same direction

Would we be home by

Now I don't know if I'd been okay with

Holding out hope for your stack of rain checks

If I'd been able to grin and bear it

Would we be home by now?

What is love supposed to feel like anyway?

Why is it so hot in LA

In late October?

Said, I don't know if it's enough to make it last

You said if I even had to ask

You had your answer

But I still wonder

Would we have turned a corner if I had waited?

Do I need to lower my expectations?

If we'd kept heading the same direction

Would we be home by

Now I don't know if I'd been okay with

Holding out hope for your stack of rain checks

If I'd been able to grin and bear it

Would we be home by now?

By now

Home by now (home by now)

Mmm-hmm (home by now)
