lyrics

Forever’s just a word you said
Meant something else in my head
I wrote you once and I’ll write again
But only if you’re listenin’
Only if you’re listenin’

Cause you know me
That I kinda need
Every small relief
Like you found in me
Would’ve clipped my wings
Would’ve traded sleep
Might’ve learned to think
Pardon everything

You ran to the shore
I was such a bore
In your Sunday’s best
Always to impress
I’m not holding back
I’m just
Humming along

Forever’s just a word you said
Curled for warmth in our bed
Sharing a space like a soul
With the ghosts and the stories they told

Just so you know
I’m not comin’ home tonight
I’ll be here
I’ll be there
Don’t ask
Just know I’m all right
If the world stopped spinnin’ around
Well I’m sure I’d feel it
You said you feel it in slow bursts
So that it doesn’t hurt
Guess I kinda wanna see that
Kinda wanna see

Cause you know me
That I kinda need
Every small relief
Like you found in me
Would’ve clipped my wings
Would’ve traded sleep
Might’ve learned to think
Pardon everything

You ran to the shore
I was such a bore
In your Sunday’s best
Always to impress
I’m not holding back
I’m just
Humming along

Cause it’s just a word
No, it’s just a word
It don’t mean nothin'
No
