you and me
(7.14.20)

when the night is finally cold
we glance at each other and i grab my coat
and i say i've never seen someone so beautiful
you believe all the words that i say
talking to your mother about how it came to this
how you let it slip

you and me
maybe forever though i'm crying on her shoulder as we speak
me and you
it's all too much to lose
and after all you've been through
i want to count on you
but that's only ever in my dream

i remember back in the band room
when i was nervous to kiss you only once
you said it'd be fine if i wanted to take my time
i remember back at our spot
with the bench and the memories that came along
you leaned in slightly but i laughed
things were perfect like that

you and me
could be forever though i'm smiling at her picture as we speak
we and you
it always comes to this, too
after all we've been through
i want to count on you
but that's only ever in my dreams

i'm praying you didn't go back to her
i was a ghost, i know
but we got too close
