[Verse 1]
It's that time of the year where I start getting old
There's traditions I try just to see what'll hold
Had my heart on the line airing out with my clothes
It's so easy to dry, but it's harder to fold

[Chorus]
Darling, don't you give up on a Monday
I wanna tell you I want you
You'd probably take it the wrong way (Oh)
God, I'm losing my grip on the runway
I wanna get there with you now
This time I'll take you the long way

[Verse 2]
It's that time of the year where there's smoke in my breath
I can cover it up with a joint and a mess
If I zip up my coat, all the feathers will leak
There's a holе in the down and a trick up my sleeve

[Chorus]
Darling, don't you give up on a Monday
I wanna tеll you I want you
You might've took it the wrong way
God, I'm losing my grip on the runway
I wanna get there with you now
This time I'll take you the long way (Mhm)
[Verse 3]
It's that time of the year where I put on my hat
'Cause the light's getting strong, and it's blocking my path
When the water is warm, it can't help but unpack
If I keep moving on, I'll forget the way back (Back)

[Chorus]
Darling, don't you give up on a Monday
I wanna tell you I want you
You might've took it the wrong way
God, I'm losing my grip on the runway
I wanna get there with you now
This time I'll take you the long way (Mhm)

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
Darling, don't you give up on a Monday (Ooh)
I wanna tell you I want you
You might've took it the wrong way (Ooh)
God, I'm losing my grip on the runway (Oh)
I wanna get there with you now
I went and took it the long way
