Beth Waters - Spun Sugar lyrics

rate me

I don’t wanna tell you I love you

and watch you wither away, wither away

like a wildflower I picked and it died in an hour

like it knew I stole its freedom

and it’d rather die than live that way

I almost told you I loved you this morning over coffee

but I caught myself

I caught myself

cause if I told you I loved you you might

melt away on my tongue like spun sugar

and disappear

but I don’t want things to change

why can’t they stay the same

don’t wanna clip your wings

those words are heavy things

don’t want it to fade

this lovely thing we’ve made

wait

I wanted to wake you up

I wanted to say this right

but I just lay by your side all night

and watched you sleep

watched you sleep

the world is not your oyster

it’s a coffee shop

and you’re sitting there

trying not to stare

you’re pretending to read your book

but really you’re just watching all the people

it’s a spectacle and you’re there

to catch the air

to catch the air

but I don’t want things to change

why can’t they stay the same

I don’t wanna clip your wings

those words are heavy things

don’t want it to fade

this lovely thing we’ve made

wait

I wanted to wake you up

I wanted to say this right

but I just lay by your side all night

and watched you sleep

I wanted to wake you up

I wanted to say this right

but I just lay by your side all night

and watched you sleep

watched you sleep

watched you sleep
