Who You Could Be Lyrics

Elijah Woods Who You Could Be

[Verse 1]
At your parents' for the day
You'll be twenty-four in May
We've been on and off a couple of months
And your mom set out the table-cloth
Talking Jesus over tea
And she's staring right at me
Like I'm some sort of anti-Christ
For teaching you there's more to life

[Pre-Chorus]
Than being where you are
But you don't know where to start
[Chorus]
So I try to fix
The glue never sticks
I thought you could be anyone
Anyone but this
'Cause you're a supernova
And I wish that you could see
That the hardest part of loving you, it seems
Is that I love who you could be

[Verse 2]
You'vе been working for a wage
You say, "It's a little phase"
That you'rе going through a reset
But it's been that way since we met
I wish I didn't doubt
That maybe this time you'll come around
See that your future is an open door
But I can't unlock the key to yours

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I'll love you until the end
But I can't do this again

[Chorus]
So why try to fix?
The glue never sticks
I thought you could be anyone
Anyone but this
'Cause you're a supernova
And I wish that you could see
That the hardest part of loving you, it seems
Is that I love who you could be
