You'd talk about the future
How our dreams would come true
I think you forgot
Nightmares are dreams too
You'd talk about the present
But never about the past
You avoided the subject
Even though I never asked
I never said you were handsome
I never uttered that once babe
But you were
In a way
But you were
In broken hearts
And black coffee
In hidden smarts
But you were
In the subtle wave of your hair
The way your eyes would shine
Whenever I came near
You'd talk about everything
And nothing all at once
Spilling blue oil
Into red lungs
You'd go from psychology
To your favorite books
From your favorite movies
To complementing my looks
Chorus
But you were
In the way wind dances in hair
In frosty breath
On freezing air
Chorus
But you were(fade to ending)
