Aftertaste Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I know that it's hard, for you to love me
I know that you don't, find it easy
Memories that damage, like the worn out paint on this piano
And I've not seen your parents, since we got back together

[Pre-Chorus]
Do they even know, that I care, about you?
And it's breakin' my heart, that I care about you

[Chorus]
Licking your lips from the bottle
Finding it just a little harder now
'Cause I'm not the taste that you wanted
I'm just an aftertaste for now
Dressing your lips for the last time
Hoping maybe that I'll stick around
'Cause I'm not the taste that you wanted
I'm just an aftertaste for now

[Verse 2]
I know you wanted to call me
You were alone at the party
I know you wanted to call me
You didn't think I'd be honest
I hope you know that there was something in-between us
Even when I'm alone I think of all the reasons
I know you wanted to call me
You were alone at the party
I know you wanted to call me
[Pre-Chorus]
Do you even know, that I care, about you?
And it's breakin' my heart, that I care about you

[Chorus]
Licking your lips from the bottle
Finding it just a little harder now
'Cause I'm not the taste that you wanted
I'm just an aftertaste for now
Dressing your lips for the last time
Hoping maybe that I'll stick around
But I'm not the taste that you wanted
I'm just an aftertaste for now

[Bridge]
I know that I'm all that you wanted now
You waited a lifetime for me to come around
I know that I'm all that you wanted now
You waited a lifetime for me to come around
I know that I'm all that you wanted now
You waited a life

[Chorus]
Licking your lips from the bottle (Oh)
Finding it just a little harder now (Woah, oh)
'Cause I'm not the taste that you wanted
I'm just an aftertaste for now
Dressing your lips for the last time
Hoping maybe that I'll stick around
But I'm not the taste that you wanted
I'm just an aftertaste for now
[Outro]
Licking your lips from the bottle
Finding it just a little harder now
'Cause I'm not the taste that you wanted
I'm just an aftertaste for now
Dressing your lips for the last time
Hoping maybe that I'll stick around
'Cause I'm not the taste that you wanted
I'm just an aftertaste for now
