We Could Be A Thing

I keep getting emails
from the girl in Sales
Sayin' we should go out on the town
Sayin' rumors are goin' around

We could be a thing
A thing that would last
But little does she know
about my checkered past

I was in a punk band
Our songs were in demand
And we're itchin' to go on tour
So I said I'm not so sure

We could be a thing
A thing that would last
You wouldn't like my lifestyle
or my checkered past

It wouldn't be right
or fair to her life-plan
She just wouldn't understand
The path I have to take
For she deserves a guy
or better yet, a better man
who'll take her by the hand
not put her through heartbreak

Yet I'm still getting emails
from the girl in Sales
Sayin' I could be the only one
Sayin' she knows we'd have fun

And we could be a thing
That would last and last and last
We would focus on bein' happy
Not on my checkered past

We could be a thing
A beautiful thing
