Laughing (Or Pretending To Laugh) lyrics

Woke up laughing on a hardwood floor In a five-storey walk, up somewhere in New York Still smiling from laying out on the roof Still smiling from opening my eyes and looking at you And if I walk around Brooklyn with my headphones in Hot cup of coffee that I spill while I'm air-drumming Will I one day bump into you as if by accident See if you wanna go somewhere and get a drink? 'Cause I've been laughing (or pretending to laugh) I've been crying (or pretending to cry) But I could stand on this corner And watch you walk my way for the rest of my life I've been laughing (or pretending to laugh) I've been crying (or pretending to cry) But I could stand on this corner And watch you walk my way for the rest of my life And it was snowing when we drove back through the city Wanted to climb up on your fire escape and kiss you on your pretty face But I lay in the van and I stared into space Half-smiling, half-flying, half-asleep, half-awake And I just really needed you to know That you don't have to wait out this snow alone And maybe I am just a reminder of home But I still think we made each other feel something good I've been laughing (or pretending to laugh) I've been crying (or pretending to cry) But I could stand on this corner And watch you walk my way for the rest of my life I've been laughing (or pretending to laugh) I've been crying (or pretending to cry) But I could stand on this corner And watch you walk my way for the rest of my life And I don't wanna marry you just yet But at least let me get you a cider And I don't even think I'd have to pay for it Hopefully, there's a couple left on the rider And just because I've got a lot to learn Does not mean that I am inherently a piece of shit Just because I don't think I know everything Doesn't mean that I don't know anything And I don't wanna marry you just yet Although it'd probably help with my visa And we can continue having this conversation I'll just go and get us both a bacardi breezer Just because I've got a lot to learn Does not mean that I am inherently a piece of shit Just because I don't think I know everything Doesn't mean that I don't know anything
