Cruel (to love you in parenthesis) Lyrics

It's safe to say

I don't tend to stay

But I never quite leave

Not every part of me

It's just a piece of myself on the plane

Damn, it hurt to breathe

When I started to see

The faster our hearts beat

When they yearn to see

Most everything

I'm growing selfish

I want us to be

Even if it's in parenthesis

Permission to be memories?

I know it's cruel

To have you fall in love with me

I'll give you the moon and the stars

Before my body's gone

Forgive me in advance for leaving

I know it's cruel of me

I'll let myself believe

I could learn to love you

In parenthesis

Now it's Wednesday and it's 12 am

We're laughing at your car door and

We're reckless and calculated

Said "we won't lose ourselves in it"

I'm getting used to how you breathe

And how you kiss your mom goodbye

I'm taking note of all the things

I'm sure they'll leave me puffy-eyed

I'm getting greedy

I wanted us to be

So much more than future memories

Can't I just have everything?

I know it's cruel

To have you fall in love with me

I'll give you the moon and the stars

Before my body's gone

Forgive me in advance for leaving

I know it's cruel of me

I'll let myself believe

I could learn to love you

In parenthesis

Si ya Madrid nos vio tocar

Solo pido un minuto más

Mirando los aviones

Sigamos con la cuenta atrás

Si ya Madrid nos vio tocar

Me aferro a que vuelve a sonar

Tu voz cerca mío

La nuestra en un bar

I booked the flights

Guess it's real

Guess I'm leaving it all behind

Keep me safe in guitar strings

Keep us safe in the black keys

That once sounded like us
