Lyrics for Against The Grain

You're lookin' at me but you're still not listening Acting like you don't feel nothing Baby, I just wanna spend time with you Why you goin' against the grain? I don't know why You keep talking 'bout the trouble I'll get you in All the ways I'm gon' bring you pain Baby, I just wanna spend time with you Why you goin' against the grain? All the looks that you and I get There's no use in trying to hide it Maybe I'm a bit too excited Rushing what we should be doin' in private Telling me the things you've decided 'Bout yourself and that you align with (oh-oh) Don't you know how short human life is? Let's quit talking and utilizing Just enough, climb onto my side, help yourself I'm on the outside, open up, I wonder if I was enough Guy with a profile coming up Would you be closed-minded as much? You got your own place, I'll adjust Must want to make things tough for us 'Cause you're just lookin' at me but you're still not listening Acting like you don't feel nothing Baby, I just wanna spend time with you Why you goin' against the grain? I don't know why You keep talking 'bout the trouble I'll get you in All the ways I'm gonna bring you pain Baby, I just wanna spend time with you Why you goin' against the grain? And I'm fine with platonic, but honestly (honestly, baby) No disguising those eyes that you lock with me You and I've been divided subconsciously Think it's time we align, need reminding That you're just enough (baby), climb onto my side, help yourself (oh) I'm on the outside, open up, I wonder if I was enough Guy with a profile comin' up Would you be closed-minded as much? You got your own place, I'll adjust Must wanna make things tough for us (oh) 'Cause you're just lookin' at me but you're still not listening (ooh) Acting like you don't feel nothing (ooh) Baby, I just wanna spend time with you Why you goin' against the grain? I don't know why You keep talking 'bout the trouble I'll get you in All the ways I'm gonna bring you pain Baby, I just wanna spend time with you Why you goin' against the grain? (Mm) Called you Saturday, and then on Friday I called you on Saturday and we went out Sunday (yeah) (We just had a, we just) but then we went out We went to a movie the next time (yeah) Was that the same date? (First official date-date was a movie) And then we went to dinner And then we went out like Thursday, and then we went out Saturday And then we went out Tuesday And then we were together every day pretty much (then we got married)
