Andrew Songtext
von Ben Platt

His hair falls in cool careless waves without trying
Goes days without crying
But still treats me kind
And it′s not his fault, all the sleep I've been losing
The way that I′m ruined

One look in his eyes and I'm gone
Helplessly dumb
My senses go numb
My brain is on fire
They say wanting someone is supposed to be fun
That's because they never loved an Andrew


Honey, I know there′s no one to blame
But honestly, damn you
It′s just a cruel joke that chemicals play
You don't wanna kiss me
Cause I′m not at all
Like the girls in the posters that hang on your wall
What a time wasting heartbreak to fall
For an Andrew
Oh, oh, oh

He floats through the air unaware of the damage
A hard right of passage for soft-hearted boys
He smiles like a friend, puts his hand on my shoulder
If I can't get closer, then I am destroyed

And I′m gone
Helplessly dumb
My senses go numb
My brain is on fire
They just can't understand why it hurts me so bad
That′s because they've never had an Andrew

Honey, I know there's no one to blame
But honestly, damn you
It′s just a cruel joke that chemicals play
You don′t wanna kiss me, 'cause I′m not at all
Like the girls in the posters that hang on your wall
What a time wasting heartbreak to fall
For an Andrew


What a time wasting, sweet happiness-taking
Self-esteem, mess-making
Heart-breaking shame
Wanna hold your hand, and be more of a man
Like your world falls apart for me or stays the same
Cause you're
Andrew

Honey, I know there′s no one to blame
But honestly, damn you
It's just a cruel joke that chemicals play
You don′t wanna kiss me, 'cause I'm not at all
Like the girls in the posters that hang on your Wall
Wish that I′d never met you at all
Sorry, Andrew
Oh, oh, oh
