So I wrote this whole long lyric set, all about the books I’ve loved over the years. I think it had a lot of technical poetic value, but when I went to record it I found I wanted to sing about this girl I used to know. I’d give y’all context but I do in the intro of the song. Hopefully y’all like it okay

I never tried to hurt you

I doubt if you’d believe me

If this world gave me everything

Then you could have it all

Wish I could be there for you

I wish that you could see me

As anything but needy

As anything at all

There was a time I’d hold you

And I could slow your breathing

And when I made a stupid joke

Your laughter gave it meaning

Remember when I wrote that song

About how angels dream

You asked me if you were the angel

I laughed and said who else could it be

Been back to working on it recently

Back then I couldn’t sing

When I wrote about that girl

Who wished her eyes were green

And the island in the corner of that deep blue sea

I just wished she could see

I’d still give my world for you

So now I just leave you be

Just know I still adore you

And that I just wish you peace

Before we watched the sunrise

I was terrified to sing

Your eyes made me realize

Maybe I could build something

There was a time I’d hold you

And I could slow your breathing

And when I made a stupid joke

Your laughter gave it meaning

Remember when I wrote that song

About how angels dream

You asked me if you were the angel

I laughed and said who else could it be

Been back to working on it recently

Back then I couldn’t sing

When I wrote about that girl
