Arguments – Tell Me What You Mean lyrics

I spent the night on your front porch,
Just to try to figure you out.
Your bedroom light was on 'til 4 A.M.
And then you left me in the dark.
I guess I'm just a guy who sees the glass as half full.

I got your number in my wallet and your picture on my wall,
I stay up late at night and give myself another pep talk,
I guess its cool to act so nonchalant,
But I don't know what you want from me, now.

Tell me what you mean when you say no,
If you'd rather I just go,
That would be fine, that would be all right.
Just tell me what you mean when you say yes,
I could hang around I guess,
And that would be fine, that would be all right.
Just tell me what you really mean when you say no.

You know I can take a hint,
I know you could give shit.
I didn't mean to be so good to you,
And just as I'm about to quit,
You pull me a little closer, just to push me away.

We've been through this conversation a hundred times before,
You said we'll be just friends and we'll never be anything more,
But each time you tell me, you seem a little bit more unsure.
So, I'm not giving up so easily, now.

Tell me what you mean when you say no,
If you'd rather I just go,
That would be fine, that would be all right.
Just tell me what you mean when you say yes,
I could hang around I guess,
And that would be fine, that would be all right.
Just tell me what you really mean when you say no.

I carved our name in an old tree out back where no one else could see.
I cooked your favorite meal, which you didn't even try to eat.
I'd write your name in the clouds, if I could only reach.
But I don't know what you want from me.

Tell me what you mean when you say no,
If you'd rather I just go,
That would be fine, that would be all right.
Just tell me what you mean when you say yes,
I could hang around I guess,
And that would be fine, that would be all right.
Just tell me what you really mean when you say no.
