Rewrote It Songtext
von Jenny Baker

For the first five months I checked
Punctuation on every text
Your tone, how you moved your body
Any sign you didn′t want me

Writing stories in my head
All the ways that it might end
With a call or a note on the door
Your keys on the counter
I used to be sure that
It was only a matter of time
Till you got bored and left one night
Had the plot line in my mind


Now I don't have a single doubt
I don′t know how you did it (I don't know how I don't know how)
Took my jaded preconceptions
Made your own revisions (I don′t know how I don′t know how)
Used to think the house was haunted
Now we're dancing in the kitchen
Really thought I knew where this was going
But you took the ending and rewrote it
(I don′t know how I don't know how)
(I don′t know how I don't know how)

Even in the pouring rain
Always make it to my place
Just to give me a kiss goodnight
Tell me that I′m worth the drive
You rewire damaged nerves
Day by day and word by word
Used to think I'd end up hurt
I was sure

Now I don't have a single doubt
I don′t know how you did it (I don′t know how I don't know how)
Took my jaded preconceptions
Made your own revisions (I don′t know how I don't know how)
Used to think the house was haunted
Now we′re dancing in the kitchen
Really thought I knew where this was going
But you took the ending and rewrote it
(I don't know how I don′t know how)
(And rewrote it)
(I don't know how I don't know how)


Went from crying myself to sleep
Writing tragedies
To you here next to me
(I don′t know how I don′t know how)
Went from almost losing faith
To your clothes at my place
You came and turned the page
(I don't know how I don′t know how)

I don't have a single doubt
I don′t know how you did it
Took my jaded preconceptions
Made your own revisions
Used to think the house was haunted
Now we're dancing in the kitchen
Really thought I knew where this was going
But you took the ending and rewrote it
