Skinny Love

Location

Early morning or late at night
I can't get you off my mind
Somehow you always reappear
Life is better when you're near
You always manage to make me smile
And so I seem to be beguiled
Sometimes you won't even know
but nevertheless you bestow
a smile or a laugh when I'm upset
I still remember when we met
Do you feel bad for what went on?
To me it's always been foregone
I can see it played upon your face
I wish memories could be erased
The look in your eyes tells me a story
And boy I know that you are sorry
Sometimes your eyes say I don't deserve her
I could not say that I concur
We play the game of skinny love
A game that we can't seem to shove
I'd like to tell you how I feel
But for now my lips are sealed.
