Remember that week I had to work out of town You said I’m kinda going to miss not having you around A sarcastic smile from me, a gotcha from you Then a kiss. It’s only a week, maybe two You made your sad face as I walked out the door I pretended not to see it, but you’re hard to ignore So now I feel guilty, and I don’t even know why But when I turned around, I saw that glint in your eye This was just you being awnry, and I should know this by now But it never fails I always fall for it somehow You always do this, it’s like your biggest delight You shake your head no and tell me I'm right. The week dragged on, cheap coffee and a motel bed Same four walls, same TV talking in my head Nothing happened worth the drive, nothing worth the stay I counted down the hours till I could pull away You had me sell my car two years back for an old man sedan little one was coming. But my Z28 wasn't part of my plan Now she's turning two, climbing in that car seat in the back Four doors and a booster, and I wouldn't take it back And I know what you did, I can see the whole thing clear You wanted that back seat and you let me volunteer This was just you being awnry, and I should know this by now But it never fails I always fall for it somehow You always do this, it’s like your biggest delight You shake your head no, and tell me I’m right. forty some years, you'd think I'd catch the game Different day, same look, and I fall for it the same I'd trade the car, the week, the whole thing twice Just to watch you grin and tell me you were right So go on, shake your head, say I had it all along And I'll keep being wrong in all the ways that feel like home
