New Recording 28 - Lions - Chelsea Cutler

Lyrics by：Chelsea Cutler

Composed by：Chelsea Cutler

I haven't heard you say goodnight

Slip both your hands between my thighs

Turn out the light pulling me in

Counting the freckles that dapple my skin

I haven't felt you scratch my back

I make a joke 'cause I know you will laugh

My favorite sound I hope that you still

Laugh just as much now I'm not there to hear

I'll lay awake hoping that you're asleep in your building that's only sixteen blocks from mine

I'll sleep all day hoping that you're awake loving every moment and doing alright

You said if I really love you then I'd understand why a person like you needs some time

So I'll let you go and hope you come home if you're really mine

You were my sun I saw a light

I've always been happy but sad in this life

But you gave me more something to keep

Now I'm counting how many K's put me to sleep

I want you to smile to feel like enough

'Cause you deserve yellow and lions and love

I hope you come back when you're doing well

Forgive me for being the worst of myself

And I'll lay awake hoping that you're asleep in your building that's only sixteen blocks from mine

I'll sleep all day hoping that you're awake loving every moment and doing alright

You said if I really love you I'd understand why a person like you needs some time

So I'll let you go and hope you come home if you're really mine

I watch the sun go down at the beach

Think about kissing you back in your Jeep

Watching the wind make home in your hair

Thinking that I could die happy right there

I took my phone to tape as you walked

Down the rye coast with your hand in my palm

So I never forget how it feels to be home

When I close my eyes that's where I go

And I'll lay awake hoping that you're asleep in your building that's only sixteen blocks from mine

I'll sleep all day hoping that you're awake loving every moment and doing alright

You said if I really love you then I'd understand why a person like you needs some time

So I'll let you go and hope you come home if you're really mine
