I Wish You Would
It’s 2 AM in your car It’s 2 AM in my room
Windows down, you pass my street, the memories start Headlights pass the window pane, I think of you
You say it’s in the past We’re a crooked love
You drive straight ahead In a straight line down
You’re thinking that I hate you now Makes you wanna run and hide
‘Cause I still don’t know what I never said. Then it makes you turn right back around.
2 AM, here we are
See your face, hear my voice, in the dark
Wish I never hung up the phone like I did, I And remember what we were fighting for, and I
I’d never forget you as long as I did, and I I miss you too much to be mad anymore, and I
Bad Blood
Did you have to do this? Did you think we’d be fine?
I was thinking that you could be trusted. Still got scars from the back of your knife
Did you have to ruin? So don’t think | it’s in the past
What was shining, now it’s all rusted. ❇❇❇ These kind of wounds they last and they last now
Did you have to hit me? Did you think it all through?
Where I’m weak, baby I couldn’t breathe and All these things will catch up to you
Rub it in so deep And time can heal, but this won’t
Salt in the wound like you’re laughing right at me. So if you come in my way, just don’t
How You Get the Girl
Stand there like a , shaking from the rain-ain Remind her [me] what it used to be, be (yeah yeah)
She’ll open up the and say are you insane-ane With 🖼 🖼 of on cheeks, cheeks
Say it’s been a long 6 months Tell her how you must have lost your minds (ooh)
And you were too afraid to tell her what you want When you left her all alone, and never told her why, y
I Know Places
You stand with your hand on my waistline Lights flash and we’ll run for the fences
It’s a scene, and we’re out of here in plain sight Let them say what they want, we won’t hear it
I can hear them ~ whisper as we pass by, Loose lips, sink ships, all the damn time
It’s a bad sign, bad sign Not this time
Something happens when everybody finds out
See the vultures circling dark clouds
Love’s a fragile little flame , it could burn out (2)
They take their shots, but we’re bulletproof
And you know for me, it’s always you
In the dead of night, your eyes’ so green
And I know for you, it’s always me
Clean
The drought was the very worst There was nothing left to do
When the flowers that we’d grown together died of thirst When the turned to dust that covered my whole room
It was months and months of back and forth So I punched a hole in the roof
You still all over me like a wine-stained dress I can’t wear Let the flood carry away all my pictures of you
anymore
Hung my head as I lost the war The water filled my lungs, I screamed so loud
And the sky turned black like a perfect storm But no one heard a thing~
10 months sober, I must admit
Just because you’re clean, don’t mean you don’t miss it
10 months older, I won’t give in
Now that I’m clean, I’m never gonna risk it
Wonderland
Flashing lights and we So we went on our way
Took a wrong turn and we Too in ove to think straight
Fell down a rabbit hole All alone, or so it seemed
You held on tight to me But there were strangers watching
‘Cause nothing’s as it seems And whispers turned to talking
Spinning out of control And talking turned to screams, oh
Didn’t they tell us don’t rush into things?
Didn’t you flash your green eyes at me?
Haven’t you heard what becomes of curious minds? (ooh) Didn’t you calm my fears with a Cheshire cat smile
Didn’t it all seem new and exciting
I felt your arms twisting round me
I should’ve slept with one open at night It’s all fun and games ‘til somebody loses their mind
I reached for you, but you were gone
I knew I had to go back home
You searched the world for something else
To make you feel what we had
And in the end, in Wonderland
WE BOTH WENT MAD.
You Are In Love
One look dark room | meant just for you Morning his place | burnt toast Sunday
Time moved too fast | you play it back You keep his shirt | he keeps his word
Buttons on a coat | lighthearted joke And for once you let go | of your fears and your ghosts
No proof not much | but you saw enough One step not much | but it said enough
Small talk he drives | coffee at midnight * You kiss on sidewalks | you fight then you talk *
The light reflects | the chain on your neck * One night he wakes | strange look on his face *
He says “Look up” | and your shoulders brush Pauses then says | “You’re my bestfriend”
No proof one touch | but you felt enough And you knew what it was | he is in love
And so it goes…
You two are dancing in a snow globe round and round
And he keeps a picture of you in his office downtown
And you understand now why they lost their minds and fought the wars
And why I’ve spent my whole life tryin’ to put it into words.
