Why is your voice so sonically pleasing to me? I can't figure it out Slight undertones of sadness while you tell me you're gonna leave I cannot bear to see you smiling in that picture with your friends I could go on about your smile, it's so grand But you take your time, my love Don't ever tell me that it just takes time to love As long as I'm writing this song about your loveliness Is it too much to ask For a reply? Or a text? Or a way to tell you love me like before Now you're away with nothing to say My heart aches like never before Filled with desire, you've inspired me to write another verse I think we're alone now You can tell me it was all just a game Yes, we're alone now But the feeling's slightly changed But you take your time, my love Don't ever tell me that it just takes time to love As long as I'm writing this song about my love for you Is it too much to ask For a reply? Or a text? Or a way to tell you love me like before In your eyes I see something I don't want to hear In your eyes I see poems and novels, short stories I don't want to hear But you tell me anyway, anyway But you take your time, my love Don't ever tell me that it just takes time to love As long as I'm writing this song about my love for you Is it too much to ask For a reply? Or a text? Or a way to tell you love me like before Or a way to tell you love me like before Or a way to tell you love me

Told her I don't mind it if she goes or if she stays I guess it all depends on her intentions to treat me that way Starting conversations 'bout the details of the art in her room What if I'm the one and you pass me up? What if I'm the one you've been thinking of? Oh, time again I pretend I don't feel a thing the way I felt before Oh, I just don't remember when She belonged to me as I belonged to her (daniel james) Baby I don't know if I'd be better living on my own I've been blaming Father Time for keeping both of us away from home Tiny little notes and pictures of you hanging on my wall I could sit and stare at them til they fall Waiting for some time to give you a call Whoa, time again I pretend I will see your face when I open my eyes Whoa, I just don't remember when Whoa, I just don't remember when Where are your shoes? Still on the floor You love your Fruit Loops, but there is no more Holes in my days, no where to be We could be alone but girl imagine if you stayed with me

I saw you smile in another way The way your eyes seem to live in another place Whatever joy you give to those who know you deeper than me You're so lovely to me Then you look at me and you tell me you've had enough You've had enough Cos I took love for granted Never thought I wouldn't have it Guess you've got another advantage Cos I still believe in love Then I thought to myself, What the hell No more looking down, just get up and go find her Cool summer night as we leap into water Start to move on from what your love had taught us But you're not my love, you're not mine You say it's better now Another love you've found So baby take my hand, even if you understand me Gotta find another way, gotta let you be free Cos I still believe in love

I think you're on to something You make love feel natural Don't let me go just yet I wanna dance with you little bit longer I love the way you move with me baby I wanna be your only love Walking to Eastern Market, another day we've started You ask to hold my hand You pick the book we're reading, it feels these days are fleeting The sky blue changes colors when I'm next to you Why you never want to see me? Baby you make love look easy Especially in the summer time When I look you in the eyes, you'd rather look in the sky (Sarob rap verse) (Sarob hook) She don't go nowhere, I got things to do She don't go nowhere, I got dreams to prove Don't act surprised, imma love you right You're the only one I can never lose And her warm kiss feel like sunlight It's so hard without ya It's so hard, it's so hard And I won't let go till it's all mine It's so hard, it's so hard

In her house she shows me a picture of her favorite painting I learned about it in my history class last year She doesn't like the way Impressionism makes her dizzy Dipping the brush in one too many shades of blue Now I just want my lovely girl To be back here with me And she just wants her lovely boy To ask her how she's doing lately And whatcha doin' lately? Baby just take me She got a brand new painting up in her room And we watch the colors move So I go out just to find her just what she deserves Why do you like the things that you like? And why do you smile and the things that make you smile? Just like your voice, and just like your art I finally see what sets you apart Like my lovely girl To be back here with me And she just wants her lovely boy To ask her how she's doing lately And how you doin lately? Baby just take meA
