Tonight

Look back at me
Over your shoulder
One last time

Stay right there
So I can photograph you
Like this in my mind

I will romanticize the features of your face
For decades of my life

I will remember your hot breath against my neck
On my final night

I don't want easy, I want honest
I want love that isn't promised
I want the brushing of your hand against my thigh

I don't want real, I want love sick
I want the pit back in my stomach
I want 'kiss me or I think I'll simply die'

I want back the piece of me I had to leave behind
I want you tonight

I rewrite history
Every time I close my eyes

Dream you back next to me
The old me that I hardly recognize

I can't remember how your hand felt in mine
But I know it was perfect

I can't remember the last time we said goodbye
But I know that it was worth it

I don't want easy, I want honest
I want love that isn't promised
I want the brushing of your hand against my thigh

I don't want real, I want love sick
I want the pit back in my stomach
I want 'kiss me or I think I'll simply die'

I want back the piece of me I had to leave behind
I want you tonight

It's probably best that you remain the same
Frozen in my teenage brain
Suspended in the time we were so free

And I will cling to the idea of you
The thrill of youth to see me through
The days where I no longer believe

I don't want easy, I want honest
I want love that isn't promised
I want the brushing of your hand against my thigh

I don't want real, I want love sick
I want the pit back in my stomach
I want 'kiss me or I think I'll simply die'

I want back the piece of me I had to leave behind
Oh I miss that piece of me I had to leave behind
I want you tonight
