I just wanted you to know im not sorry I kissed you
I wouldn't trade your lips for a softer secret
One that fit nicely in my pocket, one that didn't hold such weight
It didn't hurt me when I watched you leave
I've built bridges to stop this water from rushing over my head
Time and time again
Never did I paint us together in the suburbs, with a dog, baby or a white picket fence
That picture was tucked in my pocket long ago, right by my kiss
I just wanted you to know I'm not sorry I kissed you
I don't tie strings to boys mouths and call them balloons
I've lost too many pictures like that
Call them friends and kiss them softly
It makes the days go faster, and the smiles run thin
It makes the tea boil for me alone
This bed is home for my bones only
The bridges, balloons and pictures fold up softly in my pocket
I just wanted you to know I'm not sorry I kissed you
