I love you like birds love flying
Like wings
Like a limb they can’t imagine not having
I love you like Icarus
Like yesterday I thought I was crashing to earth
Until you kissed my shoulder softly in the morning
Took me out of the sea and back to the sky
I love you like I can see magic around us
Like earths magnetic field is just a long string
Winding back to you
I love you like Ariadne and Theseus
(But only the good parts)
Like I find you and we go home together
Like sparrows around the whole world and back to my bedroom
I love you like a homing beacon
Like a nest, like a roost
Like building a blanket fort and spending the day there
I love you like a window seat
Like watching birds in the sunlight
I love you like a bird loving the sunlight
I love you like wings
Like air
Like breathing
Like it’s easy
Like it’s so easy to love you
And I do
I do

I love you like birds love flying
Like wings
Like a limb they can’t imagine not having
I love you like Icarus
Like yesterday I thought I was crashing to earth
Until you kissed my shoulder softly in the morning
Took me out of the sea and back to the sky
I love you like I can see magic around us
Like earths magnetic field is just a long string
Winding back to you
I love you like Ariadne and Theseus
(But only the good parts)
Like I find you and we go home together
Like sparrows around the whole world and back to my bedroom
I love you like a homing beacon
Like a nest, like a roost
Like building a blanket fort and spending the day there
I love you like a window seat
Like watching birds in the sunlight
I love you like a bird loving the sunlight
I love you like wings
Like air
Like breathing
Like it’s easy
Like it’s so easy to love you
And I do
I do
