Stars, Lately

I’ve been seein u in the stars lately
ur eyes, ur pupils dark as night baby
darn lashes whipping lesions o’ me
giggle pretty like the whole city

Baby you’re my life, my goal
Ball and chain, no parole
You, you’re my life and soul
‘til we’re dust and mold

Promise I’ll treat u well
Won’t let you fell
Through all of hell
Without a yell. 

baby
Love what is love when you’re not here with with me, 
Still it grows and it grows so remarkably
And the taste of your lips, the curiosity
Gets a hold of me… and honestly?

Confession,
Baby you’re my most prized possession
Overseas, long term boy obsession
I think Overall pretty great selection

You’re worth gold and silver mountains
I’ll work hard for u, sweat in fountains
Cuz baby, now and the state we were found in?
We’ve come long, despite surroundings 

Soon we’ll have each other,
More than words but arms, rather
And life will have a lot more color,
 When i’m no longer your long distance lover.
