[Verse 1]
I first loved you at summer camp
Feel my skeleton, can you make my brittle bones strong?
Remember when we talked so long?
Quiet behind bedroom walls
The light made your eyes so big

[Pre-Chorus]
And I keep my doubts in the back of my mind
And I still love you in the meantime
Cut me slack while I figure it out
And I still love you in the meantime

[Chorus]
In the meantime
Can I love you in the meantime?

[Verse 2]
Now I sleep talk at night again, it's unsettling
Lie still as I try to calm down
I know I've been acting strange
Lately I don't feel the same, no one said it'd be this hard

[Pre-Chorus]
And I keep my doubts in the back of my mind
And I still love you in the meantime
Cut me slack while I figure it out
And I still love you in the meantime
[Chorus]
In the meantime
Can I love you in the meantime?
In the meantime
Can I love you in the meantime?

[Bridge]
Twist me, licorice
Speak with your fingertips
Tell me what you want me to do
Can you meet me by the swimming pool
After hours, when the air is cool?
I've got things I don't know how to say

[Chorus]
Can I love you in the meantime?
Can I love you in the meantime?
