I remember the way your hair fell into your eyes as you hovered above me I remember the scent of your shirt, soaked in sweat as it clung to your body

You only said it first So you could hear it back Didn't you? Now that it's true For me For every three times I say it I may hear it once

I dreamt of you once again Laying together in light blue sheets Your eyes in my mind did not offend They were only ever beautiful to me

Why does the sky open up Every time I shut down Isn't it enough The people around When I can't breathe The sky is screaming
Silence blanketing my ride home in the back of someone else's car Pretending it doesn't hurt that you live so close to my favorite bar
I would've never done what you did You didn't think twice about it Locked inside your ivory fortress Forget about me, all you need is him
A dog I've seen before runs behind a tree I can't decide if I have to follow or to turn around and find the street White rabbit or yellow brick road

Dark brown eyes with your light smile Run it back to the day we met Long straight hair and a suspicious air We don't know why just yet
See which way the world is spinning and run the other way When it seems the moon could be plucked from the sky And the blue curtain pulled away
Sunday dinner after a late afternoon drive In the warm summer air Seeping in through the windows are the sunbeams from the setting sun
my mother sees me as a friend to gossip with a little sister to share a wardrobe a rival for anyone's attention but never as a daughter
When I stand the world spins So, still, I sit and I listen I close my eyes til' I can't stand it Do I run Would it be a sin
