I feel safe riding shotgun beside you
As you cruise and unload your exquisite mind on me
You say you admire my thoughtfulness
Even though it’s just me overthinking endlessly
You’re beautiful like sunrise on the eastern shore
You’re the type of perfect pretty that hurts to hold
Your lips call me friend but your eyes call me more
And I know I could close the distance if I could just be bold
Your heart is freshly broken and your faith is weak
I’ve lived two decades waiting for a single kiss
Do we dare to be the solace that our tired souls seek?
Do we dare to end each other’s burning loneliness?
We could design a lavender daydream
But my bones know we would never last the night
If we tried, we’d lose ourselves forever
We’d bear a thousand wrongs for a single right
So please hold me without touching
Please see me without looking too far
Please be my friend without longing
for what lies beyond company
in the fated stars
