Just Another Song

I would love to sing you a song

From long ago

Tell how I loved you then

Say that I love you now

That I've loved you all along

I would love to paint you a picture

Something forgotten

Show you how I know your eyes

And all the ways you smile

That I known you since back then

Back then you saw my hair

The way I walked without care

You saw me scribbling

In my journal but you

Never asked what was in there

You'd watch me walking home

Under a thousand stars

You'd like the way I sang

With the evening but you

Never quite saw my heart

I want to take your hand

And make you come away

I want to hold you close

Behind us dawn would come

And we'd still be awake

I would like to sing to you

Tell you secrets

You can stroke my hair

And whisper in my ear

I'll tell you how you're perfect

You used to see my sketches

And saw my paper cuts

You liked what you saw

Thought I was an artist

That you could never get

You looked right past me

Past my gaze

I looked into your soul

I saw an endless well

You thought I'd never stay

You thought I'd tear you apart
So you walked away
