I hope you won’t ever hate me the way my first love does
I can almost guarantee and that scares me
But it’s nothing I’m not used too
But knowing me and my always full heart
You probably will
But one sided love is all I’ve ever known
Even though you said you’d prove that wrong
I guess it wasn’t true after all
I take what people say to me and turn it into movies in my head
I take all sweet words and keep them
Keep them too write about
But mostly keep them to remember
To remember how being loved back felt like light
To remember how looking at anyone else will never feel like home again
You’ll only understand what I mean if you’ve seen it like I have
But maybe I’m just a light house of love
That will never dim
Maybe that’s the problem
