Come away with me in the night
Come away with me
And I will write you a song
where people will hear how—
much i love the
crinkles of your eyes when you smile
how much i love
the way your cheeks turn pink
into the night
how much i love
your eyes glimmer when i tell you i love you
Come away with me on a bus
where they can't tempt us, with their lies
where we will be safe
from the insanity
of the society
and my warmth will shield you
from the coldness of
their judgments
telling you you are not enough
and everything you’ve done is just a speck
of almost—
weighs nothing
and still undermined.
But remember this
because I want to walk with you
On a cloudy day (on any day if I’m being honest)
In fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high
So won't you try to come
and hide and explain everything to me
because you are more than enough
and everything you’ve done have no words
because it’s all perfect
Come away with me and we'll kiss
On a mountaintop
where nothing matters—
no one is allowed to judge
Come away with me
And I'll never stop loving you
