Avenues and alleyways
Spending days so afraid

Afternoon and coffee

Wishing tiredness away

Always wanted to follow you home

You skip rocks and I throw stones

Always wanted to follow you home

And unravel all the stitches she’d sewn

Conversation and alienation

Spending hours on end

At your door with anticipation

Got a lot to say but I don’t know when

You shouldn’t promise me

Honestly

You shouldn’t promise me

Honestly

It’s all I ever think about

Promises I could do without
