just so you know…

just so you know

there’s a world where I come home to you

Paris In the Rain and red wine in the living room

your hands on my waistline

I melt into you

“careful now” I whisper

“might just write a song about you”

but good things always end eventually

people change and grow like ivy leaves

this isn’t the way this song was supposed to read

but I wrote it for you so

if you’re out there listening…

hi :)

you and your beautiful mind

saved me without even trying

happened out of the blue

and I was happy

the simple kind

I know none of it happened the way it was supposed to

but I just need you to know that I love-

sorry - loved you

past tense

just so you know

I still remember snowy mornings

cozy December, coffee on the counter, and Lily fast asleep

my name on your lips and your shirts in my closet

lazily helping you research apartments

that smile you gave me when you said you’d fallen for me

softest of weekdays at your parents’ place

making me buttermilk pancakes

and I’m watching, quietly yours, in the doorway

smiling ‘cause you’re humming again

you and your beautiful mind

saved me without even trying

happened out of the blue

and I was happy

the simple kind

I know none of it happened the way it was supposed to

but I just need you to know that I love-

sorry - loved you

past tense

just so you know

I really did love you

just so you know
