the first time i saw you well i promised myself
i said i didn't want just anybody, not anyone else
i'd make up plans every day, finding some way
to get to you
so i asked you to prom with sweets and a heart
hoping persistence and distance wouldn't keep us apart
i'd go to sleep every night, hoping i might
wake up with you
and until then i'm singing whoa oh oh
with eyes like the august rain and hair like the summer i know
your lipstick paints the music in my blood and soaks it straight through my bones
so i told my friends that i was going insane
replacing adjectives, my favorite words, with your name
because adorable, beautiful, clever
just weren't the same
now every day i'm falling further in love
with all the faces you make
and your smile that the sun couldn't touch
and until then i'm singing whoa oh oh
with eyes like the august rain and hair like the summer i know
your lipstick paints the music in my blood and soaks it straight through my bones
with eyes like the august air and hair like the autumn i see
miss katniss everdeen, miss tiffany, mystique
you mean so much to me
cross our stars with hopes too high
and cross my heart i'll make you mine
and until then i'm singing whoa oh oh

i remember you naked in your bedroom
i remember me mouthing past the pleasantries
show me insecure, what's mine is mine and what's yours is yours
the night our vices met, the night i fell in love again
give you the right to kill
if you give me the empty space
that you've been dying for me to fill
it's enough to drive me mad
roll the dice once more, i'm in pieces on the floor
kill me with those words, resurrect me with your curves
show me the way to bed
show me the way you say my name
it's enough to drive me mad
madeline
i know you don't want me like i want you
across your bedroom floor, i have to
give you more than just a piece of me
i know
madeline
it's never the dreams we want that come true
less was more until i met you
sunday morning i still want you
i know

your love's not the answer now
to all the questions i can't figure out
i won't say i'm something i'm not
you're alone before a crescent moon
i'm waning fast i still don't know what to do
but i won't say i'm something i'm not
pieces spilled across a foreign sky
our stars alike but never once aligned
you're sorry you don't have to be
it's 8 am you have me figured out
but you are whole, and i'm still learning how
if you're sorry, what does that make me?
so sweet but i can't make you love me, it's tearing me up
they say paper love will have you writing songs
of never after and what almost was
i'm sorry for what had to be
