But I Love You

Winter apartment We haven’t talked yet I’m alone I don’t feel cold I don’t even feel lonely You said you miss me Feeling smothered Can’t breathe Can’t breathe But I love you Can’t sing or dance when you’re around maybe even relief when you left town And now I crave no sound No sound Why is that? Shaking in my boots And your suits Have no smell Unusual But I love you I can barely tell you And I love you Maybe oceans aren’t supposed to fall in love Maybe they’re not supposed to fall in love I couldn’t tell you how I felt Not knowing what myself I love you love can be chains if it isn’t done right and it could rain all day and night yes I love you can hardly bear it sometimes sick to my stomach and scared to my core but I want you more
