national anthem Lyrics

I'll forget your name

By the time I'm brave

You could never find

The words to say that

I wish I would have known you

In football season

Kicking back in time

California dreaming

And I still sing the National Anthem

Still sing the National Anthem

Still sing the National Anthem

Wish I would have told you that you're so handsome

Come clean to admit you've always had eyes

Surprised

Long day so I take my sweet time to reply

Do you mind

Cuz you almost took it back as soon as you said it

Hedging all your bets, apologize for gambling

Now you're gonna tell me

I'm the one who's always been shy

That's what you liked

But I don't have the patience this time

Cuz

I'll forget your name

By the time I'm brave

You could never find

The words to say that

I wish I would have known you

In football season

Kicking back in time

California dreaming

Usually I would chalk it up to banter

But I'd be lying if I said it didn't matter

And I wasn't built for homecoming queen

Perfectly content to pretend nobody's listening

And maybe it was all for me

But where were you in 2013

I've been writing songs

And it's such a shame

That you never got one

Except by mistake

But you wish you would have thanked me

So it makes us even

Kicking back in time

Adolescent feelings

Well, I still sing the National Anthem

Still sing the National Anthem

Still sing the National Anthem

Wish I would have told you that you're so handsome
