Early May, I met your gaze
Like lightning struck my house
When I saw you in that bar
My whole world turned upside down
And I know that my grayness needed to meet you
The air was thick with disbelief
Is this happening to me?
The warmest bed, my frosty hands
You thawed 'em so effortlessly
And I loved how your sighs were stitched into mine
I wanna lay you down on silk
And I wanna sing your symphony
And I just want you to know
That I've never felt this way before
I wanna carve you in London's mist
And paint your hues on Paris streets
I hope you see the stars exploded above my cheeks
Since you've been here
You smell like fall and pines
Can't believe I'm saying these words
Surf and wine, copper skies
Maybe I'm not unlovable
Your arms are the Equinox where my winter ends
I feel fourteen, your smile is morphine
The corner store is our wedding hall
I feel fourteen, my skirt is gold seal
All my nightmares are gone
And I'm drunk on the melody your laugh is made of
I wanna give you all my years
And I wanna quiet our what-ifs
I don't need to dream anymore
'Cause you're everything that I've prayed for
But you're always in my mind and there's no way out
Amber rains have drenched silence in this ghostly town
Your name lingers on my lips every time I kneel down
Golden dust coats my tongue when I drink what you give out
Woven deep inside my veins, I can't take you out
Like tree roots that shatter stone and the hardest ground
I chase the flicker of your light when my sky blacks out
And your pulse is still the rhythm my sewn heart cannot live without
But I needed to meet you
I needed to meet you
And even though you're far away
I see you
