‘Tis The Damn Season

-- Taylor Swift

If I wanted to know who you were hanging with

While I was gone I would have asked you

?

It's the kind of cold fogs up windshield glass

But I felt it when I passed you

?

There's an ache in you

Put there by the ache in me

?

But if it's all the same to you

It's the same to me

?

So we could call it even

You could call me "babe" for the weekend

?

'Tis the damn season write this down

I'm staying at my parents' house

And the road not taken looks real good now

And it always leads to you and my hometown

?

I parked my car right between the Methodist

And thе school that used to be ours

?

The holidays linger like bad perfume

You can run but only so far

?

I escaped it too remember how you watched me leave

But if it's okay with you it's okay with me

?

We could call it even

You could call me "babe" for the weekend

?

'Tis the damn season write this down

I'm staying at my parents' house

?

And the road not taken looks real good now

Time flies messy as the mud on your truck tires

?

Now I'm missing your smile hear me out

We could just ride around

?

And the road not taken looks real good now

And it always leads to you and my hometown

?

Sleep in half the day just for old times' sake

I won't ask you to wait if you don't ask me to stay

?

So I'll go back to L A and the so-called friends

Who'll write books about me if I ever make it

?

And wonder about the only soul who can tell which smiles I'm faking

And the heart I know I'm breaking is my own

To leave the warmest bed I've ever known

?

We could call it even

Even though I'm leaving

?

And I'll be yours for the weekend

'Tis the damn season

?

We could call it even

You could call me "babe" for the weekend

?

'Tis the damn season write this down

I'm staying at my parents' house

And the road not taken looks real good now

?

Time flies messy as the mud on your truck tires

Now I'm missing your smile hear me out

We could just ride around

?

And the road not taken looks real good now

And it always leads to you and my hometown

And it always leads to you and my hometown

Evermore
