I don't sing
Not even by myself I never sing
But on a car ride back home one night
You put on a song both you and I know
And I serenaded the car to the tune
It was off
But I did it anyway
It's funny
Metaphorical or something I never really paid much attention to the exact rules of how to express myself in school
I never sing
But the songs you put in my heart were like church choirs on high
Shouting to the heavens their joys and hopes
To someone who's not even listening
You did too
It was softly
But you sang none the less
For those few moments
On that car ride home
I never wanted that song to end
It's funny
Maybe allegorical who ******* knows
The rules of English don't apply when your name is in my mouth
I spent so much time wishing that the song wouldn't end that I missed part of the chorus
I spent so much time
Wanting time to stop
So I could be with you
Longer
