And it could be good
We could be so sweet
And I would be
I would be your songbird, your blaze
I might not know how
But I’m willing
To learn to love you
Fearlessly
Hold on to the memories
I wanna make more with you
You feel like home to me
And all I want is you
And maybe a redo
I know we’re scared
And I know it’s scary
To clean the cage
That once felt so comforting
Do you wanna hide
From our wounds that bite
It might take some time and
It’s worth the fight
Hold on to the memories
That’s what I got for you
You feel like home to me
And all I want is you
Lemme in there
So just turn around
We could be so sweet
We could learn to love us
Fearlessly
In the quiet of the night
When my heart beats still
Hold my heart above my mind
And It could be good
We could be so sweet
I wanna learn to love you
Fearlessly
Lemme show you how
I wanna show you how
We can be so sweet

I put your picture by my bed
I don’t believe you when you say you can’t stay
Why am I always in your stream?
In your thoughts
That you weave
I know what I want
I want us happy
I see you smiling
You’re smiling at me
Just take your time, dear
I want us happy
I see you smiling
You’re smiling at me
I cast it out
Then I let it go
I’m here for you darling
I’m here for you
I know I speak more than you need
(It takes me longer to breathe)
You can call me mrs fix it, I’m here all week
(I wanna hide away)
Where is the fun if nothing’s earned?
Watch us learn
(We can learn)
As we weep
I know what I want
I want us happy
I see you smiling
You’re smiling at me
Just take your time, dear
I want us happy
I see you smiling
You’re smiling at me
I cast it out
Then I let it go
I’m here for you darling
I’m here for you
I know what they say
Darling you don’t owe me
Anything
No matter what we do
Know my heart
Lives with you
I cast it out
Then I let it go
I’m here for you darling
I’m here for you

One More Time

I want you baby
Everybody knows
You haunt me baby
I feel you when I’m alone
Take me under
Take your eyes off my soul
But I can feel your skin
On mine
Let’s be honest
You and I will not grow old
But I can feel your skin
On mine
And It’s okay
I like the way
You run your nails
Down my back
I’m along
Give me a ride
Just one more time
The power baby
In your hand you hold
Me I’m crazy
Fuck I lost control
Take me under
Take your eyes off my soul
But I can feel your skin
On mine
Let’s be honest
You and I will not grow old
But I can feel your skin
On mine
And It’s okay
I like the way
You run your nails
Down my back
I’m along
Give me a ride
Just one more time

At This Table

How did I find you?
At this table by this window letting in the light
Of the afternoon
Grey, blue skies fall across your eyes
We are in this room
People chatting around and all I see is you
And your gays
Sweet mystery
Slow unravelling
You
At this table by this window letting in the light
I saw the dew
And the blades of grass
And the blue jays and how they could fly
And land on the tree branch
And the dog steps
Searching for cats and squirrels
Hold my hand
I like your hands
As we walk through this neighborhood
With trains and tracks
Oooooh
My heart is waking up some more
I feel every moment and I am
Honored
To get to know you
To spend time with you
How did I find you?
At this table by this window letting in the light

The Devil In My Head

There’s a ghost from my past in your eyes
It feels like home
Love is so blind
You caught me by surprise
There’s a cold dark cave in my heart
I can’t see I ain’t ready for nothing to start
And I want you anyway
It’s like you’re always on my mind
And I just met you last night
Your taste is the devil in my head
Oh no, mama
Why can’t we go to bed?
We could blame the stars or past lives
I couldn’t tell up from down
When your skin pressed mine
(Tell me how)
did I know you right away?
But I know your fuck boy crowd
You don’t know what you want
And your sexy and proud
Do you know what you’re throwing away?
It’s like you’re always on my mind
And I just met you last night
Your taste is the devil in my head
Oh no, mama
Why did we go to bed?
I want you here
You’re on my mind
And you’re always on my mind
And I just met you last night
Your taste is the devil in my head
Oh no, mama
Why did we go to bed?
Oh no mama why can’t we go to bed (x3)

Did I Make This Up
04:25
|

|
I found a river under your clothes
An ocean, we let go
And my heart got blasted wide
So did my past it came with the tide
I hear sirens in the flume
It’s your voice and I’m blind
Did I make that up? Did I?
Cuz the pain sits deeper than the two dates that we spent our time
I might have made that up
Did I?
Did I paint your face on all the years I’ve cried?
There is silence in bloom
And the months go by
And you’re all I’ve seen and it’s all I’ve known
To love you in my mind
Did I make this up? Did I make you up? Did I?
