are you okay?

are you okay? - Winnetka Bowling League

Lyrics by：Matthew Koma

Composed by：Matthew Koma

You look older than I remember

And I guess that some

Of that well may be my fault

And I can't quite figure out

What you felt I'd been all this

Or if that won't even matter

Much at all

Disillusion there's no angels

Who thought their wings were permanent

In seclusion you were faithful or at least hid your finer print

How dumb I was in hindsight to

Think that I could really know

Much of anything about anything though

And does being in the

Los angeles bring me to mind

And does wine and

Billie holiday still make you cry

When you call is it to open

Up a door to better days

Or is it simple as the way you wanna say

Are you okay

An empty cup can't fill another

Why did that take us so

Long to figure out

There were sides of you where

I swore I could love her

But the love takes so much

More than knowing how

And I'm still in that apartment

Where we were big kids playing house

Where we bought the cups and curtains

To entertain settling down

And I kept some of our pictures and

I wear my birthday watch

To remind me of the man that

I'm not

Does your new boyfriend know how much I still mean to you

Do you change some other details

For more convenient truth

Can he translate how you hold his

Hand into levels of your pain

Does he know to ask despite what you may say

Are you okay

You're a child on an airplane you fear

What's out of your control

And you love New York 'cause

It was somewhere else for you to go

And you dyed your hair so you

Could look your mirror in the eyes

And pretend she's someone you don't recognize

So it's time to lose my number and

Let the past be where we stay

When you've had too much to drink

Again someone else can hold your waist

We were never quite as good as

How your memory replays

And I don't owe you no answer when you say

Are you okay

Are you okay
