You start to feel alive
After he walks into your life
A text everyday
A coy smile on your face
He walks through the door
He's nervous I'm sure
A glass of wine to calm those nerves
His long hair and laugh
He kisses you at the loft
A spark crept up your spine
Sand in your socks
You can't remember the rest.

Mangoes and coconut for breakfast
You chose to stay with him
He makes you feel safe
A late night kiss, no sparks
only the light that peeks through the blinds
A walk on the boards,
You're still in your boots and dress
A jump in the ocean and naps on a blanket
Sand in your hair and waves crashing
He takes you home.

He wants to feel real
But you feel nothing
Both of them thought you were there for them
He is drunk touching your arm
While the other is coy and collected
He stares at you while he's on stage
While the other is hidden behind
They both want to take you home
Thoughts race through your head
You can't manage two hearts
In your lace dress
The night gets late
They play the strings and pass the drugs
Your friends arrive and lust fills the room
Jealousy and twisted advances
Polaroids and summer beers
Leaving in vans
You go back to his house
To only feel like a friend
