He said I sounded like violet
Tell me do you like that shade
I told him I didn't buy it
Not falling for that charade
Just needed one more look
Before I Shut it down
I think I read it in a book
That you're the only sound when there's no one else around
(If it were up to me)
I went out for a drive
Trying to clear my head
No matter how many times I tried
Wound up at your door instead
Don't know what I expected
But I know it wasn't this
And it kills me that you're listening
'Cause no one ever did
I wanna be intentional
Should I say it slower
I wanna say I'm ready for your love
I wrote this three times over
And I'll hold you in my hands but that's all
There's nowhere else for you
I know I'm only in your eyes so small
But'd stay there forever for you
Don't know what I expected (if it were up to me I'd never leave)
But I know it wasn't this (if it were up to me)
And it kills me that you're listening (if it were up to me I'd make you see)
'Cause no one ever did (if it were up to me)
I Don't know what I expected
But I know it wasn't this
And I'm dying 'cause you're listening
No one ever did
