Acoustic Love

These years, those days
Your walls are made up of memories
Your convenient lies and inconvenient ties
You're so surrounded by mystery
But I won't rush you anywhere
I'm not here for a piece of you
You can take your time and I'll be biding mine
Just know that I'm here for you

And I could sit you down with my guitar
I could show you the whole world
Sing you love songs in the morning
Darling you know you're my girl
I want to lay me down and listen
'Cause I could never press your voice
Wouldn't love you any less if I had the choice

Your native touch, acoustic love
Your tattered heart is a part of me
With your tall tales you're too torn to talk about
That I couldn't kiss you enough to heal

But if I told you that I loved you
Would it be such a surprise?
'Cause I felt it every time I looked in your eyes
Oh, and I come back as a dog now
I pour my heart out at your feet
If the act does not mean anything then oh it stings
Oh, would you let it be

Love, love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love, love

When times like these are in changing
And when hearts like ours are done breaking
And when a mouth like mine can't stop raving
'Bout what you do to me, it's what you do to me
Oh, baby let it be

Love, love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love, love

I'm letting go of the letters, the feel of your sweaters
'Cause they hurt more when the cold blows in
I keep writing old songs, the waiting was too long
If only you'd stayed I could tell you this
I didn't know what to do with all of your oceans
I didn't know a heart could love this strong
Now I know and girl, let me tell you you're breathtaking—
Breathtakingly gone

And if ever you can hear this
Know I never let you go
And the times that you remember, I hope you know that
It was always love
