If I were him,
I'd know your birthday
Just what to get

The colors you wear
We'd borrow bikes
We'd ride on Sundays

You'd review
The books I sell


And I know it takes 22 steps
From the walk to your door
Takes 22 steps

'Cause I've tried it before
And one day I'll knock
But just not yet


If I were him
I'd buy the rain coat

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

Takes 22 steps
'Cause 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 would never try again

I'm not so sure
That you would not say
"Get out, don't step in"

I would never try again

I would never try again


Takes 22 steps
From the walk to your door

Takes 22 steps
'Cause I've tried it before
And one day I'll knock

Yeah, and one day I'll knock

Takes 22 steps

From the walk to your door
Takes 22 steps
'Cause 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
