lyrics

I moved out to North Toronto
Wore my shoes down
Let my hair grow long
Watched every episode of Sex & the City
To feel closer to you

I went down to the local bookshop
Do you have anything about the life of van Gogh?
I'm going to memorize the lines of his portraits
And feel closer to you

But honey I don't want to make this about me
Honey I don't want to make it a big deal
Honey I don't want to stop and start
I already know I'm gonna break your heart
Honey I don't want to end where you begin

I moved out to North Toronto
Wore my shoes down
Let my hair grow long
Watched every episode of Iron Chef
Just to feel closer to you

But honey I don't want to make this about me
Honey I don't want to make it a big deal
Honey I don't want to stop and start
I already know I'm gonna break your heart
Honey I don't want to end where you begin
