Bump in the Road

from I Could Have Handled This Better by Tom Clark

/

about

A response to the "shit or get off the pot" sentiment.

But seriously... stop pressuring me!

lyrics

V1:
You've been patient all this time and you've been little signs
That we should take the next step
I got a whole lot on my mind, these big distractions that I find
That get in the way of progress

V2:
Maybe it's money and that ain't right, but I can't afford a comfortable life
And I don't have a savings
Some other girl that crosses my path, or some other crush I had in the past
What's love to stop the craving

Pre-Chorus:
This isn't science, it's not hard to see
The only bump in the road to a happy life, for you is me but

Chorus:
I don't wanna be like, I don't wanna be just like
All the other guys
Cuz I still need time to grow, and I know that we're getting old
Someday, sometime, I'll be the right guy for you

V3:
You may think it's an excuse, that I have fallen out of love with you
That's not the explanation
I feel compelled to let you know, I need to pull it together before we can move on
That's the source of my frustration

Pre-Chorus

Chorus

Bridge:
Oh, I must have let you down, but I need you more than ever
I need you to stick around
Oh, I always seem to move so slow, this is taking forever and I don't want to wait no more but

Chorus

Chorus
