maybe because i was drowning & you were the only one there to save me
or maybe because you held me tight those nights i've felt crazy
but my mind still holds on to the images & memories of us
in a time where we were filled with genuine passion & sheer lust

maybe because you brought me bouquets of flowers and held the door
or maybe because you kept wanting me, more & more
but my skin still remembers the touch of you
in a time where our feelings have never felt overdue

maybe because you were so much different than what i knew
or maybe it was because of how fast our love grew
but my mind is in complete retrograde amnesia & my body is busy drowning in the thoughts of you
in a time where i only experience saudades of both our "i use to's"
