My Love For You

Just one look at you and I knew

I’d be counting sheep with the ghost of you

No one else but us in the room

It’s a moment that I travel back to

Said you left it all behind

New to town and feeling like you followed all the signs

One slow movement at a time

Laughing like you’re someone that I’ve known for my whole life now

Was it all that long ago?

It was so unusual

Why’d you have to let it go?

Crippling anxiety on my back that I gotta carry

I turned your bed into my home and my apothecary

I lose my mind when I think you and I as dead and buried

It’s always been like this, my love for you is involuntary

Involuntary like

Memory lane on the beach

Saying you believe in me

Brain-altering chemistry like

I got you, I know you got me

Late at night, it’s gonna haunt me

How you tell me with your body (How it always sounds like)

“Be the company I keep”

I know that you’re laughing just to hide what’s underneath ya

Small Indiana tide

Call me sentimental like it’s something you don’t like now

I forgot my winter coat

When’d July become October?

Wish you weren’t so difficult

Crippling anxiety on my back that I gotta carry

I turned your bed into my home and my apothecary

I lose my mind when I think you and I as dead and buried

It’s always been like this, my love for you is involuntary

Blame it on my infinite altruism

My heart leading my decisions

I’ll love you for all of my life, why can’t we get it right

Crippling anxiety on my back that I gotta carry

I turned your bed into my home and my apothecary

I lose my mind when I think you and I as dead and buried

It’s always been like this, my love for you is involuntary

It’s involuntary

It’s involuntary

It’s always been like this, my love for you is involuntary
