For Today

Originally performed by Jessica Lea Mayfield

I was walking with your left hand in my back pocket
I stared at the sky while you kissed me
you were running away
away from everything
I stayed behind so you’d miss me

while these words sound so sweet
I could care less about you
care less about you
I love the sound of you walking away
and I can
see clearer and I’m getting closer
to finding out just who I am
without you in the way
so hold me
but only
for today

despite my best ambitions
I get in to the worst situations
but here I am crystal clean
and all the nights so lonely
the words I say to you are phony
because there’s nothing left to say

and though you say you can’t live without me
and every single night you think about me
i could care less about you
care less about you
and I love the sound of you walking away
and I can see clearer
And I’m gettin closer
To findin out just who I am
Without you in the way
So hold me
but only
for today
