HORRORSHOW - Walk You Home - This Day lyrics

rate me

She said she don't believe in regrets

Well I regret to inform her that I do

Rainfall on a tin roof

Inside I sit and scribble a haiku

On the napkin that came inside of our takeaway thai food

It goes, our time is always, our season is all year round

This our secret for as long as we can keep it

The deepest of secrets that nobody knows

The root of the root, the bud of the bud and so it goes

And the lyrics of a thousand songs couldn't paint her picture

So beautiful, she had me from my first conversation with her

See nobody was ever as clever

And I still can't figure how they put her together

Sitting in the room where we first got lost in one another

Just tripping off the feeling of together we'd discovered

And I'm reminiscing on days past, escaping to Pearl

Before taking that whole and making it two halves

But it was scary to be even this close to a perfect fit

Close your eyes, I promise this won't hurt a bit

This is the kind of love that inspires the stuff I write my poems to

The kind of love you have to leave, just to come home to

You play with fire and you get burnt

For all the things that I have learnt

And I would love to walk you home

If not the one, then you're the first

For all the things that I have learnt

And I would love to be the one to walk you home

Now ain't it funny how the ones that you drag all the way through your hell

Are the same who can teach you how to touch heaven as well

And now it's out of order and we ought to know

You try to fit a square through a circle and it's flaws will show

And it's gone now, you wouldn't even know it was there

But you'd get lost tryna navigate the moments we've shared

Like when we held each other's hands and we said goodbye

Tears streaming out our eyes like somebody had died

Now it's the day after your birthday and it's pouring outside

And I'm catching arrow tips with my fingers down the phone line

See she broke my heart on the river

The trump played last gets the job done quicker

So I'm singing to my palindromic angel, held her too tightly

Wings got broken and the love got strangled

But I don't wanna hold you back girl, go fly

Conquer yourself, all the corners of the sky

But I hope that you are close by on the day that I leave this world

With hands held we can close our eyes and let the second hand go by

Cause I wouldn't wanna not say goodbye

Let you know that you touched my life

And whether I like it or not

I think a part of me will never give up this fight

Cause there's nothing like you and I

No, there's nothing like you and I

But it's getting late in the game now, outcome's uncertain

These are things that I needed to say before the curtain

So I wrote you the song that you deserve to let you know

You will always be my first and most wonderful love

And I would love to be the one to walk you home
