MY FAV SONG OF MINE TO DATE i love it so so much

started writing it in january 2021 and finished it in september 2021

this is the beginning of something special, the world i'm currently crafting, and i have faith that it's going to be magical

lyrics

I found you at my front door
Singing my favorite song
I wanted to let you know
I admit I was wrong

And I've never been so in love
With a feeling before
So I put on my forest green
And I walk out the door

The weeks spent talking with you
I never let it go
And now I cry about it
While trudging through the snow

The pair of shoes I wore and
The subway songs we'd sing
The coffee on your breath
I remember everything

Give me a reason to throw away the past
Since every good moment never lasts
So I just cling to what I had

Run through the doorway cus the air's getting cold
I only travel to the places I know
Not all my promises are always sincere
Cus now I'm in Grand Central thinking about last year

Stay in the present but I'm drifting away from here

I'm always playing songs
I listened to years ago
Why do I want to go back
To when I was miserable

I used to crave the feeling
Of heartache, now I know
That nothing beats the feeling
Of finally letting go

Give me a reason to keep my heart intact
I enjoy carrying baggage on my back

Until I hear my spine crack

Run through the doorway cus the air's getting cold
I only travel to the places I know
Not all my promises are always sincere
Cus now I'm in Grand Central thinking about last year

Stay in the present but I'm drifting away from here

I miss the faces that I find on my phone
Comfortable sadness never felt so alone
If time keeps moving and it never looks back
Then I'll just keep walking til my shoe soles turn black
I'll just keep walking til my shoe soles turn black
I'll just keep walking til my shoe soles turn black
I'll just keep walking til my shoe soles turn black
I'll just keep walking til my shoe soles turn black

Run through the doorway cus the air's getting cold
I only travel to the places I know
Not all my promises are always sincere
Cus now I'm in Grand Central thinking about last year

Stay in the present but I'm drifting away from here
