Cliff Notes

This song was written about that special someone (you know who you are). The song is meant to portray all the emotions you feel before even considering that the person you’re interested in could be interested in you too. The hopeless romantic feelings where you assume any and every contact is a form of affection. Wanting to reassure this person, that if they are overthinking as much as you are, to realize that you’re there for them. You’ll be patient, and understanding even when it hurts because that’s what love is about right? The moments where you feel the pain of missing someone when they are gone, it can’t all be about when you’re spending time with them. Enjoy the “heartache”, that’s how you know it’s real.

“All it took was one little line

For me to feel those butterflies

And now I'm sitting in my room

Wondering what the hell did I just do

No it can’t be true

Yeah no one has been so perfect

No one has been so kind

Tell me darling have you always been this nice

I’ve only seen bits and pieces of you

Yet that’s all it took for me to fall

Doesn’t make much sense at all

I’ve been reading those cliff notes

On the story that you told

The story where I don’t even play a role

Just a side character you’d ignore

Walked right past my door

How surreal it could be

If you took a chance on me

I could satisfy your needs

Listen and really get to know me

I could be your favorite story

Cause I wanna be your everything

Wanna be the one you call

When you’re following your dreams

Yeah I wanna be your everything

Wanna be the one you call

When you’re falling to your knees

Let's write it with no casualties

Then make it a reality

We’ll be apart, but we’ll grow together

Take a raincheck on the weather

Now you know

Its obvious I’ve read more than those cliff notes

Now you know

I’ll wait for you no matter where you go”
