lyrics

Gambled our Friday night on the Green line,
Walked Wadsworth Street with laughing feet and spinning eyes.
Saw your smile on the porch, paid my five at the door,
And turned back around to see those eyes I came here for.

We always need to feel someone. Well what if that someone was you?

My awkward lines were juxtaposed against the hug you sold
I only spent a compliment—a bargain for your hold.
The night turned into days, painting an affair
But the canvas was too thin and each stroke made it tear.

We always need to feel someone. Well what if that someone was you?
Well what if that someone was you?

Words that stand alone in a poem without a heart, we wrote with love we didn’t own.

A rock thrown into water, ripples in its wake
But time takes the intensity and we soon sink
So once again we turn to see our bodies love,
Because a heart that lives alone is a heart that never opens up.

We always need to feel someone. Well what if that someone was you?
And everything in my life was fine until I came across the line.
