As I lay on your chest
I listen to the thumping of your heart match the waves
Almost as if you were the bay
And I was the sailor
Falling in love with the way you move

I see the bridge illuminated by the moon
The reflection dancing among the waves
A symphony of nature before my eyes
I knew from that moment on I was falling

For the way the world faded away
For the way your laugh echoed through your chest
For the way your hand gently held my face
For you

Over and over again
Like the waves of the bay

I still think about you sometimes
I'll still glance at your house when I pass by your road
I'll still hope you're safe when I hear the lightning strike
I'll still answer the phone when you call at 4am and I'm drunk
Or maybe, sometimes, even when I'm not
You'll always be my first love
And I'll always hope you'll never forget me

My head pounds
The alcohol burns my throat
The world becomes a blur

I lay down on my bed
Staring up at the never-ending white abyss
I have visions of you

I hear your voice singing to me
I feel your arms wrapped around me
For a minute it feels like you're here

It's even worse when I fall asleep
My head fills with dreams of you
The ultimate tease to a heart in love

But then I wake up
A day starts anew
Life moves on

I no longer miss you at all
The illusion of your perfection dissolves
Because I only love you when it's 3am

When the ***** hits
And the moon comes out
And I feel lonely

always being there for someone
who will never be there for you

giving them everything you have
when they can't spare anything at all

realizing everyone takes you for granted
when everyone meant the world to you

you
were
the
best
mistake
i
ever
made

but
you
were
still
a
mistake
