She takes sleep more seriously than I take anything
She blindfolds her eyes shuts out starlight
She's sensitive like me, Then she came
Ripping through like a fucking tornado with a path of clarity
Reality hit like a bus, crashed into my solar plexus
So I'll politely fold my hands for everyone to see
These accusations nothing more than my anxiety
She takes life more patiently than I can even stand
Anticipation of conversation but she's always changing plans
She chose words more deliberately but her mouth says everything
She always has kale chips like glitter on her lips
Got me wishing it was me
But I wouldn't change anything
That night in BBS parking lot it was freezing, mid December I guess
I played the soundtrack to my life "I could hold you in my arms"
But I rambled on, I was such a mess
A week or so later, Christmas eve in your car
Ringing any bells?
You kissed me on N. Main and I thought "wow"
Or maybe I said it out loud
So I'll politely hold your hand so anyone can see
This love in my bones that I feel for you is all they're cracked up to be
