People Watching

[Verse 1] That wasn't funny But she laughed so hard, she almost cried They're countin' months they've been together Almost forty-nine He's making fun of how she acted around the holidays She wears a ring, but they tell people that they're not engaged They met in class for metaphysical philosophy He tells his friends I like her 'Cause she's so much smarter than me They're having talks about their futures until 4AM And I'm happy for them (I'm happy for thеm) [Chorus] But I wanna feel all that love and emotion Be that attachеd to the person I'm holdin' Some day I'll be falling, without caution But for now I'm only people watchin' [Verse 2] I'm only looking just to live through you vicariously I've never really been in love, not seriously I had a dream about a house behind a picket fence Next one I choose to trust, I hope I use some common sense But I cut people out like tags on my clothin' I end up all alone, but I still keep hopin' [Chorus] I wanna feel all that love and emotion Be that attached to the person I'm holdin' Some day I'll be falling, without caution But for now I'm only people watchin' [Bridge] Cut people out like tags on my clothin' I end up all alone, but I still keep hopin' I won't be scared to let someone know me Life feels so monotone, but I still keep hopin' Cut people out like tags on my clothin' I end up all alone, but I still keep hopin' I won't be scared to let someone know me Life feels so monotone, but I still keep hopin' I feel love emotion [Chorus] I wanna feel all that love and emotion Be that attached to the person I'm holdin' Some day I'll be falling, without caution But for now I'm only people watchin'
