i wouldn't trade it for the world
but these mellow melodies
will leave bad memories in my heart
we figured that balloon was a metaphor
from the start
but i mean
love lingers like lemonade
in my cuts
from those kisses to the touching
in which we participated
from daybreak to dusk
your eyes looked animated

i wonder if my grandparents ever felt like this
fifty three years and they still felt like this?
i wonder if there was moments
where they still melt like this
i used to fantasize in hopes she kissed like this
i used to wish to hold hands
or bump fists like this
i used to and i still do
but hopefully that wasn't my last window
to make a mark on her
to walk to the park with her
or even sit on the phone and talk to her
i hope she feels like this

a door is open for us
on the other side
is a wedding ring
but will commitment
be the end of me
would she still choose me
if there was ten of me
when she sees me at my worst
hope she keeps the same energy
and these clouds are stalling
like something i ain't ever seen
i guess i might as well
try on that wedding ring
