lyrics

I never said it
But you must have felt it
I was embarrassed
With you hand around my waist
And as you held it
I couldn’t help it
I was thinking that I couldn’t
Stand the way you would taste

But you can come over
We’ll kick off the covers
With the weight of your body
Goes away the weight of my brain
Finding safety in your freckles
I think I recognize the colors
From all the shoulders of all the boys that I used to date

But what if this is how it’s meant to feel
This is the shape, this is the deal
It doesn’t fit in the box I’ve made
And tell me, is that what it means to get older
You’re sweating but I’m feeling colder
With my head in your face, I don’t feel any type of way
Should I turn back or wait

You left quickly today
Baby it’s Sunday
You should have asked me if I wanted
A coffee or some toast
Or for you to stay
Were you comfortable last night
Did I have the right pillows
Do you think that this could be
A home you could make


Don’t you forget my embrace
When you try to fuck her today
I hope you imagine my face
When you fall into bed
Cause I’ve got a lot on my plate
And I want a family some day
Are you gonna give me my way
Or can I let go of this chase

But what if this is how it’s meant to feel
This is the shape, this is the deal
It doesn’t fit in the box I’ve made
And tell me, is that what it means to get older
You’re sweating but I’m feeling colder
With my head in your face, I don’t feel any type of way
Should I turn back or wait

Baby I think I should apologize
For being on your case
Thanks for the try, but i’d rather die than go another 20 years in this space

But what if this is how it’s meant to feel
This is the shape, this is the deal
It doesn’t fit in the box I’ve made
And tell me, is that what it means to get older
You’re sweating but I’m feeling colder
With my head in your face, I don’t feel any type of way
Should I turn back or wait
