Hit your peak at 28
Looked at me like I was meat
Licked your lips and cocked your head
Moved your hand across my leg
Leaned in close
Loved your nose

Warmth of your breath
It made me blush
Couldn't hear a word you said
My heart had stopped, thought I was dead
Nodded dumb
Felt like ****

We're on the street
The night's pitch dark
Pulled me closer to your car
Bodies acting out our scars
Bodies marred
Kissed you hard

The stars, they hung
The moon, she sung
And still you cried
As I held you tight

Into your car you pushed me down
And hoped to lose what we had found
Yet, now sprawled out on the couch
Clinging hands and searching mouths
A bang went off inside my head
I found myself inside your bed

The stars, they hung
The moon, she sung
And still you cried
As I held you tight

The sun rose high
You let out a sigh
Your demons passed
But mine remained
So there I left you
Sleeping off our pain

The stars, they hung
The moon, she sung
And still I cried
As I held you tight
