and I'm falling for you, so hook line and sink your teeth into my heartbeat
yours, whether you can keep it or not
and you can't, but I'll play pretend until it breaks me
because god knows we want forever but god knows we can't have it
so just sigh a sleepy i-love-you into the phone
because it makes me smile, and right now I want it
I'll lay here and pray the distance breaks us before the situation does
just know it only hurts to love you 'cause I'm scared I'm gonna lose
but even when it crumbles, I'm happy it was you
that every first we shared together will be ones I won't forget
and at least I'll rest easy knowing it was special
that the first lips I ever kissed were ones I truly loved
I know I'm being told I should regret it
but in the end, I only regret the ones I've hurt and the lies I've had to tell
and trust me, I believed you, even if no one else did
you deserve the world and I hope you get it, and I'm sorry I couldn't give it to you
but trust me when I say there are better girls than me and you're good enough for all of them
you will forever be a part of me, and I am infinitely grateful
I hope you take the good parts with you and I hope you'll be okay
you were my everything in a not-forever and I wish we could've stayed
aftermath in the key of love // k.
...
god I hope you see this
