Hey, ain't it great for us to be alive
I've been lying in wait for you to come outside
I know you don't know me but I know a lot about you
You're the one who knows me better than I do

When I get back home I'm gonna put your records on
I play 'em way too loud and I'll sing along
I know all the words to every song
And I don't really care but tonight you sang one wrong

And I, I can't keep from talking
I can't keep from talking about you
And I just wanted to thank you
Thank you for doing what you do

I wanted to tell the world a little bit about myself
Realize my feelings and put them on a shelf
Then jump out the window so you'd know what it's all about
'Cause I can't be there to help you figure it out

And I, I can't keep from talking
I can't keep from talking about you
And I just wanted to thank you
Thank you for doing what you do
