If I were him
I'd know your birthday
Just what to get
The colors you wear
We'd buy old bikes
We'd ride on Sundays
You'd review
The books I sent
And I know
It takes 22 steps
From the walk to your door
It takes 22 steps
Because I've tried it before
And one day I'll knock
But just not yet
If I were him
I'd buy the raincoat
The orange one
That he forbade
We'd wait for rain
We'd walk by his house
In the front
Not by the lane
And I know
It takes 22 steps
From the walk to your door
It takes 22 steps
Because I've tried it before
And one day I'll knock
But just not yet
And I'm not so sure
That you would not say
Get out, don't step in
I'll never try again
I'll never try again
It takes 22 steps
From the walk to your door
It takes 22 steps
Because I've tried it before
And one day I'll knock
But just not yet
If I were him
I'd know your birthday wish
