I'm reminiscing  on video chats
deep stares and full lips
cocking your smile to the side you said
I could call you mine
Then I wondered
Across 5,000 miles
Who else was on the line?
Who else was falling for your smile
Those eyes, that skin,
the cool way you calmly replied
Your heroic nature
You love to save the world
You have a charming way
You could've changed my world
I only wish
I was your only girl

why are thoughts of no one but you always on my mind at this time of night
i can't get you out of my head
i etched your name in every
journal i've ever owned
my hands are aching
i'm all out of ink

You weren't as great
As I painted you out to be
Maybe I'm just a good artist.

I can stare for days,
at the seagull,
sitting on my window sill.

I’m going to spend the rest of my life with him,
until I have the same expression on my face…
