timekeeper

(album: portraits - 2019)

Remember that feel of my hands running through your hair on your bedroom floor
Caught in the thrill of a life spending cash on shit that we can't afford
No this ain't the end, no I'm not dissuaded by your demeanor
And if you forget, the memories fade, I'll be your timekeeper

'Cause I want you more, more, more
Ooh, ooh baby, ooh-ooh, ooh baby, more, more, more
Ooh, ooh baby, ooh-ooh, ooh baby

Show you that first date at the ramen place
When I picked you up late, we were happy that day
You told me about your family, how they hate all your decisions
But you never felt it heavy and you still had vision
Show you that first night when we just had sex
When your eyes rolled back to the back of your head
But now you're so damn mean, is it a cultural thing?
Guess that you forgot that night when you called me a dream, heavy

And you can't even tell me what's the reason
But you're addicted to a loneliness, that feeling
(Those flowers didn't help, huh?)
You say it's in your head, you blamed the seasons
(Shit I hate this cold too)
But you're addicted to a sadness, to that feeling
(Whatever, just stay on your phone)

Remember that feel of my hands running through your hair on your bedroom floor
Caught in the thrill of a life spending cash on shit that we can't afford
No this ain't the end, no I'm not dissuaded by your demeanor
And if you forget, the memories fade, I'll be your timekeeper

'Cause I want you more, more, more
Ooh, ooh baby, ooh-ooh, ooh baby, more, more, more
Ooh, ooh baby, ooh-ooh, ooh baby

Show you that first fight at Hodges Bend
When we talked it all out, sealed it up in a kiss
But then you had another drink, said you could not feel it
Until you threw that glass at me, when you saw I looked at him (fuck)
Jealousy is quite a bitch
And you thought that I was joking when I offered the hitch
I don't need all the memories to know we're A-team
And if you can't see that, then fucking leave babe

And you cannot even tell me what's the reason
(Goodbye R.K)
But you're addicted to a loneliness, that feeling
(Guess I'll see you another day)
You say it's in your head, you blamed the seasons
(And to R.B, too)
But you're addicted to a sadness, to that feeling
(Just keep that focus on you)

Remember that feel of my hands running through your hair on your bedroom floor
Caught in the thrill of a life spending cash on shit that we can't afford
No this ain't the end, no I'm not dissuaded by your demeanor
And if you forget, the memories fade, I'll be your timekeeper

'Cause I want you more, more, more
Mmh, baby, I want you more
