metaphor

You travelled the world
Before you could drink tequila at a bar
Everybody knew your name
Before you even knew who you were
They think they've got you figured out
They think they know it all
But you're just a boy with a guitar
Writing sad songs about broken hearts
But you're just a boy, sitting at a piano
Trying to find the right words to tell them that

You love him more than anybody else
And that will never change
With him around the world seems golden
With him around all walls come down
You love him more than anybody else
but you can't let them know
So you bury your thoughts
You bury your love
You bury yourself in another metaphor

You got a tattoo, it reminded you of him
So you got some more
You try everything to keep him close
But he's loosing himself, and so are you
You thought you'd find a way to figure it out
You thought you'd make it right
But you're just a boy with a guitar
Writing sad songs about broken hearts
But you're just a boy, sitting at a piano
Trying to find the right words to tell them that

You love him more than anybody else
And that will never change
With him around the world seems golden
With him around all walls come down
You love him more than anybody else
but you can't let them know
So you bury your thoughts
You bury your love
You bury yourself in another metaphor

When you get lost in a field of sunflowers
He makes it feel like home
So you take your words, you write them all for him
And they may never know, but, oh, you do, you love him...

You love him more than anybody else
And that will never change
With him around the world seems golden
With him around all walls come down
You love him more than anybody else
but you can't let them know
So you bury your thoughts
You bury your love
You bury yourself in another metaphor

(And when they ask, you're gonna say)
(Oh it is just another metaphor)
(Another metaphor)
