Don't Thank Me for the Truth

Come as you are, let's get out of this house
You can take me for a ride in your car
Where we can't be found
Tonight
Take us to a place I've never been
And we can lie down underneath the stars
Where I can feel your whispers on my skin
And I can hear the beating of your heart
Right against your chest
A sound that comes out different than the rest
Belonging to an honest, raw feeling that we already knew
I look into your eyes
I find a million worlds, I see the sky
And in your smile I find the words I mean and recite them back to you
If I am a poet, then you are a muse
I only follow your design
A string of words wrapped up around you
So show me all the things I've never seen
Let me be a witness to your art
And I can tell you what you mean to me
And let you feel the beating of my heart
Right against your hand
A skip that comes out on its own, unplanned
Belonging to a blushing, raw feeling that we already knew
You look into my eyes
And suddenly my world is bathed in light
And in your smile I find the words I mean and recite them back to you
Put me right against your chest
A place that's so much safer than the rest
I'll jump into your arms and kiss your lips like I told you I would do
I look into your eyes
I find a million worlds, I see the sky
And in your smile I find the words I mean and recite them back to you
While we are apart you're in my head
So I do what I always meant to do
I set to tune the words I've always meant
And tell you not to thank me for the truth
