​blush

[Verse 1]
My brain storm's been raging
In search of better words
To say things I can't describe
In the form of candid verse

I'd like to stop for a moment
But the minute hand keeps going
Counting down towards the end of my stay

[Chorus 1]
From scarlet skies to vacant grays
I'll sing to you a serenade
And tell me you'll keep a piece of me through better days

I'll protect it in a song
What we had when we were young
And maybe i've lost my touch, but i hope i'd still make you blush

[Verse 2]
It’s not like me to choke on words
I’m supposed to be good at them
But you leave me speechless through every turn
Oh, well oh

You said that you had learned
To leave paper hearts alone
But I prefer mine next to yours, it’s home

[Pre-Chorus]
And I try to slow down time
So you’re closer for a while
But I’m spellbound - you smile it all away

[Chorus 2]
If we met when we were kids
We’d have time to be stupid
I want you to live your life, don’t make yourself live mine instead

So one last chance for summer sun
You’re dressed in pink like bubblegum
Just like the day we met by the trees in autumn blush

[Bridge]
For every fear that you recount
I'll provide reassurance for all of the doubts
Even if I'm not sure myself
Don't worry

And you said
"I hear our dreams calling our names"
"So is it set in stone, our separate ways?"
No, I know you're somewhere down this road
You’ve gotta be
You’ve gotta be

[Chorus 3]
The sparkle we have now
I'll protect it in this song
As long as you're by my side, let's watch while the heavens blush

I know I’m overthinking things
Don’t know what the future brings
But I wish you everything the world can give
