I know that you like Grateful Dead
The guitar riffs resounding in my head when you're around

The sound of your name on my lips emits a response, it blurs the whirls of possibility around
The sound of my name on your lips fills me with bliss

This, is what you'd expect, I bet
I mean nothing in the long run
This is just fun
because you know how much I blush in secret

I know that you like the way that the stars are a limitless field
How the waves crash, in a flash, we capture

I can see the stars in your eyes when you stare
It leaves a glare on all the pictures I try to take of this sky

See I know, that you don't like me, but you did once
Once the words were off your lips
The awkwardness slipped into my empty palm, where your hand could have been
Taking too long to respond

But you're smile is brighter than any star
The flash of a camera
The headlights on your car when you offered me a drive home

Instead, you drove me crazy
