Desoleil (Brilliant Corners)

(album: Not Waving, But Drowning - 2019)

Back, uh
Nobody thought I was leaving
Caught with the grieving, was taught to mislead 'em
When all I been caught in is seasons
But I changed for the better and I know that
And things don't look bettter through a Kodak
But some things look special in a throwback
Out in the cold and I'm telling you to hold that
Just there
Beauty in bold, I stare 'cause you froze in the cold night air
As the show lights glare
You can hold mine bare, 'cause the cameos grow so rare
I suppose I care about you more than anyone else
And I know that's true
Uh
So I propose and I say "I do"
And we'll run to the moon, September to June
In July we can sleep in your room
Never way too soon, uh
You go home to your favourite tune like (Mmmm)

Spending time, spending time
Is never a waste of mine with you

Trust me, trust me
Speaking of love, well, it must be
Cleaning the bed when it's dusty
Who else gonna moisture my face when it's crusty?
It must be, it must be
Done with the games 'cause I'm rusty
And I ain't afraid that you love me
Wait till we get our own place and it's comfy
You touch these stars, uh
So I let you touch these scars
Laying in my arms and the bus breeze past
I'ma tell you that the trust needs ours
'Cause it just needs ours
It just needs ours
Bumping to Nas, Lisbon to Mars
Twisted hearts

Spending time, spending time
Is never a waste of mine with you
Inner vibes down my spine, inner miles
And intuition intertwined
And grew and grew and grew and grew
Oh
And grew, oh
Oh
Ah, slept on it, feeling kinda distant from Desoleil
I know you're out of town and only a text away
I wish that you were here and right next to me
Enlightened Paulo Santos to the west of me
Been battling some feelings and they press on me
Without that guiding voice there especially
Nestling here together, on my chest you breathe

Say, uh
Uh, lines that I write will survive
Another night blinds with the tyres
Take mine to this fire, and the time flies by
Till I'm sitting with the stars in her eyes
Can't lie, but I need to, I need you
Knee-deep in the sea that we been through
Seen gleams but the beams will mislead you
So I leave speaking the evil to these who
Wanna keep, wanna talk
I don't wanna speak
Wanna walk, and I wanna be, honestly
Something more than a cup of tea that you come and see
Fierce, deep, and you scream at me to cover me
Deep, 'cause your mother weeps when your brother leaves
Need sleep, can't speak on your love for me
All the other geeze want a piece, but you're putting up with me
Couldn't see you were deeply in love with me
Uh, say

You were deeply in love with me
