Don't Go Loving Me

Folder: 
2017

I remember

seeing those signs

Dropping them at your door

I remember sitting here

wanting nothing

I remember wanting more

 

And she said

Don't go chasing those sunsets

Don't go thinking you're free

Don't go thinking your hand is tied to mine

Don't go loving me

 

I've been told

my mouth is too dry

I don't have the words to explode

I've been told I'm a world

I'm a desert

I don't know how to follow this road

 

And she said

Don't go chasing those sunsets

Don't go thinking you're free

Don't go thinking your hand is tied to mine

Don't go loving me

 

I leave here

with an ache, with a smile

I'll return for this close and this need

I leave here wanting more,

wanting something

I leave here and I don't care if I bleed

 

And she said

Don't go chasing those sunsets

Don't go thinking you're free

Don't go thinking your hand is tied to mine

Don't go loving me
