When You Were Here

When you were here
I could speak without words
When you were here
I could listen without sound
A kiss for hello
A touch for your mine
This is language of our old life

I miss your hands on my neck
And your body on mine
I miss your laugh and your moods
And the way we’d fight

It seems I’ve discovered a new way to cry
I was single before you
But now I’m empty inside

When you were here
I could feel all that you said
Each kiss was a promise
Each touch was a pledge
Tell me I get you
Tell me I’m here
Tell me I’m worth it
I wont disappear

Without you the chorus is humming a lie
The kisses are gone
The touch says goodbye
I wake from a dream
And the pillow is cold
The memory fades
And now I don’t know

Was it all make believe
Was it all in my head
You can blame it on me
We can both fantasize
But did I dream your I love yous
Did I dream all your smiles
Did I dream how you held me
In our old life

When you were here

I could speak without words

Greener

If you could make me into anything you wanted

into the kind of girl you could fall in love with…

What would you change

What would I say

Would I be strong

Tell you when you were wrong

And would I stay

This girl you loved

Would I stay

If you could make the world around

The dream you’re craving

What would you change

Where you’re living

How you’re giving

Would your sidewalks remain the same

See the faces you see everyday

Who would smile first

You or me

And would it be worth everything we’ve done

She’s perfect in every way

Slim sweet doe eyed innocence and sex slave lay

This girl you want

Who walks away

If you could make her anything

You wanted

Into the the kind of girl you’d change your world for

Would she hold you up and expect the same

Would she keep to a script you wrote

Would she be smart

Love you back from the start

And when she leaves are you the same

Or would she stay

And when she leaves are you the same

Or would she stay

This girl you want

This girl you’ve loved before

This dream you’re craving

Greener than the world you’re hating

What would you change

What would you change

And would she stay

Would I stay
