If I Told

(album: Old Flowers - 2020)

It's a full moon, L.A
And we're alone for the first time
On Venice Beach under the palm trees
Tell me your dreams and I'll tell you mine
What would you say if I told you
You're my last thought at the end of each night?
Would you believe me?
Or would you even reply?

Would you?
Would you?
Would you?
Would you?

I am a loner, I am stubborn
Can you handle this world I live in?
I know I can't change, but for you, I'd compromise
I'd be on your side, if you'd be on mine
Yes, you're anxious and you're stubborn too
But I'd learn to love the worst parts of you
Could be the full moon or this cheap wine
But I'm hoping you'll reply

Would you?
Would you?
Would you?
Would you?

Is it in the stars or some age old truth?
Why did the universe draw me to you?
You're so magnetic, I am hypnotized
Feels like I've known you since before this life
I hope I always see you this way
Here's to wondering if you feel the same
But I can tell when your eyes meet mine
That the truth isn't your reply

You do
You do
You do
You do
