I want to hear you string my name with cliché compliments you say you've said to no one
to be the reason you bring the corners of your mouth to their highest point
As you talk about the way your name rolls off my tongue
And how it's such sweet noise
I want to witness your face buried beneath a mountain of scarves
And watch your nose get pink from the cold
As our palms cradle the hand warmer we almost forgot to bring along
When we'd get back to your room
I'd like to sing a song for you
While we sit opposite each other
Painting the one who makes us swoon
You'd say mine was better, however your's turned out
And i'd laugh along because you were being too loud
Resting my head on your chest with ease, saying
"With you i feel my best. If i was a puzzle, i'd be complete."
You'd smile and kiss my forehead
And play with my hair as we lay in bed
Warm under green hand-me-down sheets
All you would do is stare at me
And i would stare back
In a state of awe
Wondering how i got so lucky
So early on
