Leave You Behind

I wish I could gather words to describe
How I feel in this moment but I can't decide
You already know with your hand on my chest
Every pulse is like a disco at best

I put on a movie but we don't even watch
Like we really could care about the plot
I give you a look but you beat me to it
I lean in to you and you lean in to me

I wanna stay here and hold you so tight
Do whatever we can to last through the night
Then I will wake up only to find
I was the one to leave you behind
So what can I do but lay here and grieve
Your touch is something my mind can't conceive

I hear you speaking I don't understand
I try to reach for your translucent hand
You start to fade and the light starts to shine
Your ghost it haunts me chills down my spine

I wanna stay here and hold you so tight
Do whatever I can to last through the night
Try not to wake up, only to find
I'll be the one to leave you behind
So what can I do but lay here and grieve
Your touch is something my mind can't conceive

The stars will never ever align
There'll be no celestial design
Our time will never run out
Because it never came around

And so I woke up knowing I am
The one who left you behind again
