The Box Under My Bed
I love when we sit and do nothing for hours
And put on music that reminds us of our past
The songs we loved since we met
We don't skip the sad songs
Time's gone by
Measured by the melodies that last
It's all I'll ever want
I've waited all my life
To say this to you today
I think we're safe for now
So enjoy it
I don't know when it will change
Sometimes late at night
I go into my room where I hide
Things to look through
My keepsakes of all the years
My memories
I keep them in a box under my bed
It's nice to know
They're near
Love me
You love me
Don't leave me
You'll love me
Love me
Don't love me
You'll love me
Don't leave me
Remember that day on the island with sun shining
Through the trees sparkling like a thousand tiny diamonds
I felt so alive
Endless hopes about to fold
When I panicked
You calmed me down
Stopped me from breaking things
You see my darker side
It hasn't phased you
To make you want to leave
You're all I'll ever want
Sometimes it takes a while to be able to see
Sometimes late at night
I go into my room where I hide
Things to look through
My keepsakes of all the years
My memories
I keep them in a box under my bed
It's nice to know
They're near
It's true
I have a tendency
To live in the past
But I hope
In the future
You're still here
