lyrics

Baby, you're a wildflower no man will ever tame.
I'm just a big old oak tree trying to offer you a little shade.
But you were gone so quickly from underneath this branch if mine.
And who can really blame you when you say you need some more sunshine?

How long do I keep holding out
for something you're not sure you'll ever be ready for?

I'm not one to test the water, I prefer to dive right in.
And when you say that you don't want to, I say if not now, then when?

And it hurts even though she warned me
that this is how things were gonna be.
A whimsical girl with the smile of an angel,
I guess I should've seen.
Should've seen through the drunken makeout sessions,
through laying in the grass.
Through telling her all my hopes and aspirations,
although this would never last.

I'm not gonna keep holding out
for something you're not sure you'll ever be ready for.

I'm not one to test the water, I prefer to dive right in.
And when you say that you don't want to, I say if not now, then when?
Suit yourself girl, just remember we're all still learning how to swim.
And I've been drowning in the deep end ever since you pushed me in.

It turns out she left her heart and soul down in Paris, France.
Gave it to some real hip guy, guess I never had a chance.
I could never offer her an Eiffel-Tower-filled romance.
No wine-soaked days.
No whirlwind overseas emotion usually only seen
in motion pictures on the screen, but no,
she'll never feel that ocean breeze inside the theater,
gotta go to the sea. (x3)
So won't you go down with me?

I'm not one to test the water, I prefer to dive right in.
And when you say that you don't want to, I say if not now, then when?
Suit yourself girl, just remember we're all still learning how to swim.
And I've been drowning in the deep end ever since you pushed me in.
You pushed me right in.
