Poet Lyrics

Drifting, slow drifting, it went from uplifting to sinking so far into bed

Missing your kissable skin with your soft tranquil voice on repeat in my head

Give you every part of my life,

I'd marry you and wouldn't think twice, but now

I hear you saying goodbye

In everything but your words

Would've called this woman my life and

I wish I could've called her my wife but

I can tell it doesn't feel right, though I'm not that good with words

But you were a poet

Though you, wouldn't show it

Victims of circumstance, I wish I could understand

These chemicals up in my head

Make me feel the ghost of your hand

Counting, I'm counting to days that amount to a

Timer until I'm back home

Though, this place I live in is all decorated in

Styles that mirror your tones

Green sheets we lay in, I got them for you

My full size bed was big enough for two

This separation I thought we could do

Now I'd give up sex just to lay down with you

Give you every part of my life,

I'd marry you and wouldn't think twice, but now

I hear you saying goodbye

In everything but your words

Would've called this woman my life and

I wish I could've called her my wife but

I can tell it doesn't feel right, though I'm not that good with words

But you were a poet

I could listen to you talk to me all day

Though you, wouldn't show it

And now I gotta go and give you away

Victims of circumstance, I wish I could understand

These chemicals up in my head

Make me feel the ghost of your hand
