Corner Store

[Verse 1]
Do you ever get the shakes?
When I'm not around
'Cause I get the shakes
When you're not around and I need you here
Do you ever lose control?
When all of your money is spent on wine and the cheapest clothes
I lose control
When you go and leave me alone
With the thoughts linger in my mind

[Pre-chorus]
And oh we say it all the time
We see them come and go
And I still don't know why you turn around

[Chorus]
I'm more than you bargained for
You don't want a part at all
Can we be a little more than just friends?
I'll meet you at the corner store

[Verse 2]
Do you ever wonder why we're here?
'Cause I'm always dumbfounded when asked what I think
'Cause I know why we're here, together
All the distance between us creates an illusion

[Pre-chorus]
But this is really happening here
We see them come and go
And I still don't know why you turn around

[Chorus]
I'm more than you bargained for
I'll go tally up a score
Because it's clear as day to see
You're not the one for me when,
I'm more than you bargained for
You don't want a part at all
Can we be a little more than just friends?
I'll meet you at the corner store

[Bridge]
None of our friends go there anymore
It's not what I had in mind
But I don't mind anymore
None of our friends go out anymore, anymore

[Outro]
I'm more than you bargained for
I'll meet you at the corner store
Oh at the corner store
I'll meet you at the corner store
I'm more than you bargained for
At the corner store
I'm more than you bargained for
I'll meet you at the corner store
