August 17th Lyrics

It's weird how we equate fidelity with emotion
And we see jealousy as proof of devotion
Just because you're in love,
Doesn't mean your heart is taken
I don't want to split you up
Even if I want to see you naked.
And maybe, we should just be friends
Maybe, the world has got it right
But maybe, we're doing the right thing
I know it feels pretty right, tonight

And you're so cool,
The way you sit back and you discuss
Her emotions and his emotions,
Without any need to fuss
About losing her attention,
Or not being the only one
If more people were like you,
We'd be doing oh so well
And maybe, we should just be friends
Maybe, the world has got it right
But maybe, we're doing the right thing
I know it feels pretty right, tonight
