By the Way Lyrics by Mayday Parade

Sweet

2025

[Verse 1]
I'm smiling in the afternoon
I've got a lot to do
And it's a beautiful day
Walking with the confidence and the common sense
That I've had since last May
[Refrain]
Following after you
Feels like I've covered every longitude
Doing what I have to do and never doing it again
[Verse 2]
Feeling like I walked away
From the saddest taste
And you're my favorite flavor
A little cherry lemonade
And a tiny hint that I couldn't savor
[Refrain]
Following after you
Feels like I've covered every longitude
Doing what I have to do and never doing it again
[Chorus]
By the way I'm still the same
Everything you ran away from is still here
Laughing at me making faces
I'm still the same by the way
[Bridge]
And I know what you'll say when you hear this
I can picture the look on your face
And I'm glad I don't have to see it
'Cause seeing it wouldn't make me happy anyway
And I know what you'll say when you hear this
I can picture the look on your face
And I'm glad I don't have to see it
'Cause seeing it wouldn't make me happy anyway
[Chorus]
By the way I'm still the same
Everything you ran away from is still here
Laughing at me making faces
I'm still the same by the way
[Outro]
I'm smiling in the afternoon
I've got a lot to do
And it's a beautiful day
By the way
Walking with the confidence and the common sense
That I've had since last May
Following after you
Feels like I've covered every longitude
