You say you could never write a tune
As pretty as I do
But I love it when you sing to me
Out of the billion other places and faces
We are yet to meet
It's only you where my heart fits in perfectly
I like the sound of pouring rain
My cup of tea that keeps me sane
But I love rain when I'm nestled in your arms
And someday we'll buy a bed for two
Kiss you softly every morning, too
Oh, what I'd give to wake up next to you
There's so much of you I'll never know
So many treasures I cannot give
Lay down with me, recount our memories
Does that make up for what we've missed?
And I'm terrible at understanding
Time and time again
But if time was meant to heal us
We're filled with vows we're yet to send
Well, I like writing melodies
And humming out a tune
But I love it when I'm writing them for you
With these words left unsaid
We'll write novels in our heads
And spill them out once they finally understand
That life is gray and black and blue
But Darling, that's not always true
It's never blue when my clothes smell of you
Shivers down my spine
When eyes lock, hands intertwine
Our hearts beat the same old lullaby
We're worn out yet so alive
We're just a bunch of broken souls
We're not quite sure just where to go
But this time I would know
Cause it's your heart that I call home
Well, I like writing melodies
And humming out a tune
But I love it when I'm writing them for you
I know that I'm not perfect
Even though you disagree
And I know there's nothing harder than loving someone like me
But if you still think it's crazy
How you're loved by lil' old me
I'll send all our plans in bottles if it meant you were the sea
And I can't do as much as you
Can't write, can't make good art for you
So, for now I hope this'll do
To make you feel my love for you
We're so far down an endless road
We've got the rest of our lives to go
'Till then I'll be waiting through this storm
As we promise to laugh and sing and keep each other warm
Well I like writing melodies
And humming out a tune
But I love it when I'm writing them for you
Darling, I hope my melody reaches you
