Yu (A Song For Koda)

(album: Laps Around The Sun - 2018)

I wasn't prepared and she caught me off guard
She's crazy, but all the good ones are
She was the letter I've been waiting to send, I thought the day I'd find her might also be the end
Not to quote Padmé but look I've been dying every day since you've been in my arms
And I understand earnestly that dying is the sweetest thing that I've been missing
Living without your love

Oh baby yu
Oh baby yu
Oh baby yu
Yu keep me warm
Keep me warm
Keep me warm

She's not a girl I will pedestal she's a girl you sit next to
Her posture alone makes her strong
She's certainly not heavenly or above anything
She's been salt to the earth all along
Achilles said in Troy its these gods that do envy how we feel change from summer to fall
The way we created good luck and taught each other how to fuck
With intention in the heat of it all

Oh baby yu
Oh baby yu
Oh baby yu
Yu keep me warm
Keep me warm
Keep me warm

The day if she dies I won't wipe tears from my eyes I'll let them flow, down to my toes
See the last thing she'd want from me is to hold onto anything, after loving her I'll die happy alone
Newt Scamander would say, you suffer twice when you worry
She is sleep to all the fatigue I've ever known
She's the proof that god's not above, cause how on earth or in hell could of
This woman make my heart feel like a home

Oh baby yu
Oh baby yu
Oh baby yu
Yu keep me warm
Keep me warm
Keep me warm

Oh baby yu
Oh baby yu
Oh baby yu
Yu keep me warm
Keep me warm
Keep me warm
