(no subject)
i smiled when you said you missed me
cause i was at your house all day before
I drove slow on the way back to your place
it's hard to shift with your head on my lap
i'm driving 50 when the limit is 60
because the sooner i get there the less you get to rest
and we both know how much you need it
cause at the time i kept you up all night
wishing and dreaming i was asleep in your arms
hoping and praying I won't leave again
But now i'm the one who is exhausted
working all day and crying all night
because you're the one who has forgotten
that we faught for each other and finally won
and how am supposed to save you from drowning
when i can't even swim myself
but i'll jump right in, and try my best
and hold my breath and wait for it to go dark
you smile when i leaned in to kiss you
with the windows cracked to let the smoke pour out
and the radio seems to know we're together
cause it loves to play the songs that define us
we have 20 minutes until you need to be home
and since we're out in the country we can pull off the road
and we both know how much we need it
cause at the time we couldn't keep our hands to ourselves
wishing it could always feel like this
sinking in each other and never letting go
but now I'm the one who is lonely
begging for something to hold on to
because you found passion in his arms
so I hope his bed stays warm
but i don't see how he can give you
the things i've given to you
does it ever feel like the first time?
like that night on your bedroom floor
I know what it's like to hurt you
and i know what you can do to me
and that's how i know this is worth it
cause then we'd never have emotions like these
next time i'm awake at 4 in the morning
i'll lean over and and kiss you, I love you girl, sweet dreams
cause i was at your house all day before
I drove slow on the way back to your place
it's hard to shift with your head on my lap
i'm driving 50 when the limit is 60
because the sooner i get there the less you get to rest
and we both know how much you need it
cause at the time i kept you up all night
