Intertwined

I love how you never say goodbye
When we hang up the phone
I love how you keep it open ended
Giving me hope

Between us is a thousand miles
But you close the gap
With your heartfelt lines and white lies
I'm safe where you're at

And I'm so glad
That our lives are intertwined
And we never say goodbye

We slowly tell our secrets
A layer at a time
They always said I was an onion
But that's not why you cry

You saved me when you could
And I know you would
Press rewind

And bear every bit of pain I had
To ease what was mine

The love we have
Got us through that night
I'm telling you you made it right

Why do beautiful things
Never last
Like butterflies and dog's lives
We're here to see them pass

Let's live our best
And if we make a mess
At least we were there
Throwing paint and running in the rain
Muddy and bare

And I'm so glad
That our lives were intertwined
And that you never said goodbye
