Story Of John

(album: Ask Me Anything - 2015)

I had a story to tell him
A secret I'd kept for so long
I had a small kinda memory
That I named The Story of John
Well he was down for the summer
A game changer meant for the sea
And I was never in contest, the boundaries fell right at my feet

And now I
I know your eyes like I shouldn't
I hear your voice like I wouldn't, want you to

So I sit at my station
And watch him get swept by the waves
I turn to my imagination
Pretend like he'd run up the hill
And asked to hold my hand and roll me in the sand
Until the sun took all the light away

And now I
I know your eyes like I shouldn't
I hear your voice like I wouldn't want you to

And now I
I see your past like a shadow
That I want you to let go until my arms catch you

Now the night time has left him
Down in a corner with me
I know I'll put on a smile when
The girl he takes home isn't me

And now I
I know your eyes like I shouldn't
I hear your voice like I wouldn't want you to

And now I
I see your past like a shadow
That I want you to let go until my arms catch you

Until my arms catch you
