Top Sheet

Visiting home
To find yourself
I'm living alone
Come twist your legs in mine
We're both thinking the same thing tonight

Walking on eggshells
And playing it too cool
Coward and fool
We're both losing
Who is who is who in this mess

Toeing the line of taking it too far
Come up my stairs I'm on the top floor
I've got shit to lose so I'll push the feeling

Used to crave your hand now I just want your touch
Love was an ache, now I don't ache so much
See I'm not trying to be your girl this evening

So why don't we reminisce
On how we were all wrong
Just you and me and history
With nothing but the top sheet on

Perennial pain
Resurfaces with yours
And I can finally remove your grip
And for once
For once, I'm not full of it

Used to want your hand
I would pray, non-believer
Begging for water
Heart on my sleeve oh
I got used to you not showing up

I feel 17 for all of a minute
In all the worst ways, clutching my chest
My guts spilling out, I'm again craving space in your mind

The feeling is gone just as fast as it started
The flame has gone out, why reignite it
Got over you once and I can do it again tonight

So why don't we reminisce
On how we were all wrong
Just you and me and history
With nothing but the top sheet on
