Description

If you let me --if you listened-- I would paint the sky orange just for you.

.

Today, you are a dreamer with your broken eyes and the heady ecstasy of your smile. I don't know myself from the paper on the wall. I could fall for you. [the way you hold your words to your chest is beautiful.] I could fall for you and you would only look away.

If you knew --if you understood-- baby, I would make these words beautiful like you. Like your dark hair and how it flicks into your eyes. Like the callused poetry of your hands. I would will the sky with my romantic dreams. I would fill my world with glory. I would fill my life with you.

If you touched --if you trusted-- love, I would hold them all away from you. The monsters that haunt your dreams will answer to me. I will hold you through the nights and I will make you safe. Please admit it, love. Please confess you're hurting. Please show me the scars on your wrists, release the tears you've trapped behind your lids.

If you looked --if you cared-- baby, I would clip my wings so I could be with you. In your eyes I would find my own sky and in your arms the pain would fade away. I think it could be perfect. [i think we could be perfect. i wish we could be perfect.] The shudder of your skin and the wind whispering through your hair -- you're more amazing than you would ever imagine. I want you to see this in a mirror someday. I want you to remember this. I want you to remember me.

if you loved --if you loved me-- babylove, I would paint the sky orange just to see you smile.
