Walk You Home (This Day)

She said she dont believe in regrets
well i regret to inform her that i do.

Rain fall on a tin roof
inside i sit and scribble a haiku
on a napkin that came inside our takeaway thai food
it goes our time is always
our season is all year round
This is our secret for as long as we can keep it
the deepest of secrets that nobody knows
the route of the route, the bud of the bud, so it goes
and the lyrics of a thousand songs couldn't paint a picture
so beautiful, she had me from my first conversation with her
see nobody was ever as clever
still cant figure how the put it together
sittin in the room where we first got lost in one another
just trippin off the feeling of together we discovered
now I'm reminiscing on days past, escaping the pearl
before taking that hold and making it too hard
but it was scary to be even this close to a perfect fit
close your eyes, i promise this wont hurt a bit
this is the kinda love that inspires the stuff i write my poems to
the kind of love you have to live. just to come home to

You play with fire and you get burned
for all the things that i have learned
and i would love to walk you home

If not the one then your the first
for all the things that i have learned
and i would love to be the one to walk you home

Now aint it funny how the ones that you drag all the way through your hell
are the same who can teach you how to touch heaven as well
and now its out of order, but we ought to now
you try and fit a square through a circle and its gone now
you wouldnt even know it was there
and you'd get lost tryin to navigate the moments we've shared
like when we held each others hands and we said goodbye
tears streaming out our eyes like somebody had died
now it's the day after your birthday, and it pouring outside
im catching arrow tips with my fingers down the phone line
see she broke my heart on the river
the drums played last gets the job done quicker
so im singing to my palindromic angel
held her too tightly, wings got broken and the love got strangled
but i dont wanna hold you back girl, go fly
conquer yourself, all the corners of the sky
but i hope that you are close by, on the day that i leave this world with hands held
we can close our eyes and let the second hand go by
cause i wouldnt wanna not say goodbye
let you know that you touched my life
and whether i like it or not, i think a part of me will never give up this fight
cause theres nothing like you and i, no theres nothing like you and i
but its getting late in the game now, outcomes uncertain
these are things that i needed to say before the curtain
so i wrote you this song that you deserve
to let you know you will always be my first and most wonderful love

and i would love to be the one to walk to you home
and i would love to be the one to walk to you home
said i would love to be the one to walk to you home
said i would love to be the one to walk to you home
(to be the one to walk you home) said i would love to be the one to walk to you home x 6

can i walk you home?
