Tom MacDonald - Motions lyrics

Don’t tell me you won’t come around cause I
Know you’ll come around in a minute
Don’t tell me you can’t shut it down cause I
Know you’ll shut it down in an instant
Don’t tell me that you’re still in
Love cause I can see
It in your eyes You’re just
Going through the motions
You’re going through the motions

And that’s ok
It’s a symptom of youth to lie to
Yourself and to try avoiding the truth
You been in love a couple times
You got the scars for the proof
So if you let it fall apart
Again you'll have no excuse
You’ve been going through the
Motions and when
It’s all in the open they’ll
Have so much dirt on you that
They could grow a million roses
But the longer you wait, the harder they fall
The louder the fight, the less they will call

You haven’t been in love forever
You know it won’t get better

Don’t tell me you won’t come around cause I
Know you’ll come around in a minute
Don’t tell me you can’t shut it down cause I
Know you’ll shut it down in an instant
Don’t tell me that you’re still in
Love cause I can see
It in your eyes You’re just
Going through the motions
You’re going through the motions

Talk about me kindly with your girls
When you are dining with them
Speak about the times that you stayed
In because the time difference
What’s so crazy I was waking
Up and y’all turnin’ up i would go to sleep
Well y’all did too but y’all love late
I’d be lying if I said I didn’t miss it
Or somewhere down inside of me
Still believed it’s realistic
To think that we could work it out
To think that we could turn it
'round and go back to the
Places where the words "I love you"
First came out our mouths

Bless you and your girlfriends and the
Path that y’all have chosen
I’ve completely come to terms with the
Fact that y’all have been broken before me
Before we hit those restaurants and
Made love on those rooftops
And swore that we would last
Until they Tupac me
Underneath it all you were the
Truest love I ever known
To foolish love I never gave
Enough space to grow
But enough about regrets and I hope
That you don’t take it wrong
But all your bullshit helped me write
Down all these fucking songs

You haven’t been in love forever
You know it won’t get better

Don’t tell me you won’t come around cause I
Know you’ll come around in a minute
Don’t tell me you can’t shut it down cause I
Know you’ll shut it down in an instant
Don’t tell me that you’re still in
Love cause I can see
It in your eyes You’re just
Going through the motions
You’re going through the motions

You’re just going through the motions
You’re just going through the motions
Tell me that you're still in love
I see it your eyes
Just going through the motions
Going through the motions
