my favorite lyrics from lover

  • and I scream, "for whatever it's worth, I love you, ain't that the worst thing you ever heard?", he looks up, grinning like a devil
  • I'm always waiting for you just to cut to the bone, devils roll the dice, angels roll their eyes, and if I bleed, you'll be the last to know
  • have i known you for 20 seconds or 20 years?
  • I've been the archer, I've been the prey, who could ever leave me, darling, but who could stay?
  • lyrical smile, indigo eyes, hand on my thigh, we could follow the sparks, I'll drive, "so where we gonna go?", I whisper in the dark, "where we gonna go?", I think he knows
  • I like shiny things, but I'd marry you with paper, rings, darling, you're the one I want, and I hate accidents except when we went from friends to this, uh huh, that's right, darling, you're the one I want, in paper rings, in picture frames, in dirty dreams, oh, you're the one I want
  • and I hope I never lose you, hope it never ends, i'd never walk Cornelia Street again, that's the kinda heartbreak time could never mend, i'd never walk cornelia street again, and baby, I get mystified by how this city screams your name, and baby, I'm so terrified of if you ever walk away, i'd never walk cornelia street again
  • barefoot in the kitchen, sacred new beginnings, that became my religion
  • my heart, my hips, my body, my love, tryna find a part of me that you didn't touch, gave up on me like I was a bad drug, now I'm searching for signs in a haunted club, our songs, our films, united we stand, our country, guess it was a lawless land, quiet my fears with the touch of your hand, paper cut stings from our paper-thin plans, my time, my wine, my spirit, my trust, tryna find a part of me you didn't take up, gave you so much, but it wasn't enough, but I'll be alright, it's just a thousand cuts
  • they say home is where the heart is, but god, I love the english
  • he likes my american smile, like a child when our eyes meet, darling, I fancy you
  • and I hate to make this all about me, but who am I supposed to talk to?, what am I supposed to do, if there's no you?
  • I lived like an island, punished you with silence, went off like sirens, just crying, why'd I have to break what I love so much?, it’s on your face, don't walk away, I need to say
  • I need to say, hey, it's all me, just don't go, meet me in the afterglow
  • I don't wanna look at anything else now that I saw you, I don't wanna think of anything else now that I thought of you, i've been sleeping so long in a 20-year dark night, and now I see daylight, I only see daylight
  • maybe you ran with the wolves and refused to settle down, maybe I've stormed out of every single room in this town, threw out our cloaks and our daggers because it's morning now, it's brighter now, now
  • like daylight, it's golden like daylight, you gotta step into the daylight and let it go, just let it go, let it go
