The Words I Speak

Was Never Written To Be Sung

I'm rummaging through my head

All the songs that could be us

One track after the other

All the lyrics we're speaking

Thinking back to our behind closed doors rendezvous

Our reckless spirit and wild youth

Save me that reflection in your eyes

For them to only see my enchanting smile

Will you forget my lips ?

Maybe my voice ? And hands ?

Can my admiring gaze be something that your mind skips ?

I've written lines and lines about this mysterious creature

That crept in through the night and attempted to steal me away

The little smirk at the corner of your mouth suggesting your succession

And perhaps you did so take that as your win

And I'll have you, as the ultimate champion

The mastermind plans, the mastermind achieves

Maybe you have that little competition in the palm of your hands

But my eyes are looking at a much bigger prize

You accused me of cheating to get it

Baby, if it's for you, I'd commit any crime to claim it as mine

One day you'll wonder and ask "Was it all worth it to be in such pain ?"

Mi alma, to get to know a soul like yours I'd give up worldly matters

"Isn't that too much and all for me ?" please don't be scared I'm well-aware

And trust that I'll have no regrets if we were meant to be parting way

"To have known you honest and true, I'll keep you safe while we're letting go"

Maybe I'll cry maybe you won't

But I know that you'll keep me sound as our hands start to unwind

I'll tell you at some point in our journey may the words never leave my mouth

{You'd be in my last seven minutes when my body is a corpse and my brain is alive}

Our paths have crossed and I hope we walk on the same one

Doubtful as we once were but perhaps more meaningful as we can become

I'm here to hold that space

You're here to paint it blue

We're here to make it ours

hi baby
