Lyrics

[Verse 1] Excuse me if this one winds up impersonal I've tried to write a song 'bout you before And all the minutia I've sung about (Yeah) Can't do you justice like I use 'em for You're too mature I say that's new like you to impress you We went to Harlem, just met you You sipped Coquito, danced on the roof Took the same train my friends told me to I have no problem bein' me but bein' me left me alone, yeah How do I opеn my room to you When all my laundry's on the floor? [Chorus] That ain't what the good songs do Oh, no, I'd sing you covеrs And you'd feel it in the way I'd sing to you, it's true Oh no, baby we'll be lovers And my words have failed me here before, but my voice won't My heart is true, oh No, I'd sing you covers And I'd feel safe in the way I'd sing to you (It's true) Oh no, maybe we'll be lovers And my words have failed me here before, but my voice won't My heart is true, no [Verse 2] Of all the essays I've written about myself And the ways that I can feel when I am down and won't let go (They all say Ceebo let go) I can't tell you how much fear I have when you say "Talk to me" Hence why quotations float around When I'm alone I would [?] and Stevey Stevens Demarco I'd remark, yeah He really hits it home, for me But of all the pain inside our brains, yeah [?] helps us keep it sane, and Recollect the passion In the paintings I make when I'm writing 'bout your flame, but [Chorus] That ain't what the good songs say So, no, I'd sing you covers And you'd feel it in the way I'd sing to you, it's true Oh no, baby we'll be lovers And my words have failed me here before, but my voice won't My heart is true, oh No, I'd sing you covers And I'd feel safe in the way I'd sing to you (It's true) Oh no, maybe we'll be lovers And my words have failed me here before, but my voice won't My heart is true, no [Outro] Look, this is probably corny, but I've been afraid to get back into this for a while. I've been trying to let go of all this stuff to be a better me. You're the first thing in a long time I've wanted to hold on to (They all say Ceebo let go)
