Flower Glass

I know I'm not the picture perfect vision made in your mind

I know I'm not the one you would've thought your love would look like

You're sifting through the pages of the book he left behind

But you can't find the reason when all the phrases realign

I tell it to you softly, it's so terrifying

When I hold you like a flower, I hold you like an hour glass

Hold you like you're the only thing I yearn

The feel seeps into dreaming, twisting circles round in my hand

It's harder to believe in all those awful things that they have said

But when I see the dust is falling, I don't want no one else

It's better to believe in something bigger than ourselves

I'll sing it to you softly, it's so terrifying

When I hold you like a flower, I hold you like an hour glass

I hold you like you're the only thing I love

When I hold you like a flower, I don't care how the hours pass

I hold you like it's the only thing I know

I hold you like you're the only thing I've ever had

I hold you like you're the only thing I've ever even had

I hold you like it's the only thing that would ever last
