Sweet

I’m not a nice girl. I’ll fill a pot with honey just to see what I can catch. Yeah, the drama unfurls. I can get real possessive if I think that we’re a match, and you’re the kind of guy everyone likes. I stopped being jealous cause you said you’re mine. No, I’m not a nice girl, but with you, I’m sweet—a perfectly ripe strawberry in the summer. I’m sweet—everything you could want in a lover. I’ll hold you close and squeeze you tight, and I’ll haunt all of your dreams at night. You’ll see. Baby, I can be sweet. Diamonds and pearls: reflective, luminescent as they hit the ground and scatter. I was a good girl, till I had my heart broken, but what does that even matter? You’re the kind of person I’d like to be. I could like myself if you’d just love me. Yeah, I’m just a sad girl, but with you, I’m sweet—a perfectly ripe strawberry in the summer. I’m sweet—once you pick me, you won’t eat another. I’ll love you so hard you’ll start forgetting all the things you knew before you met me. You’ll see. Baby, I can be… Oh, I’m so sweet. I can drown out all the bitterness and the tragedy of this fickle world we’re living in, and, babe, we could be the next Romeo and Juliet if you stay with me. It’s our destiny. Sweet—perfectly ripe strawberry… Sweet—I think we should just get married. And if you ever leave me, you’ll regret it, cause I hold a grudge, and I won’t forget it, baby. Oh yeah, I can be sweet—a perfectly ripe strawberry in the summer. I’m sweet—gonna become best friends with your Mother! I’ll smother you in love and kisses till you give up all your dreams and wishes. You’ll see. Baby, I can be sweet—a perfectly ripe strawberry in the summer. I’m sweet—everything you could want in a lover. I’ll hold you close and squeeze you tight, and I’ll haunt all of your dreams at night. You’ll see. Baby, I can be sweet.

..Hey

Hey, I miss you. I don’t know how it got this way, all I know is I’m not the same without you. I miss you. Hey, thank you. I don’t know how I got this far, all I know is that I couldn’t have without you. So thank you. You went to live your life, and I’m trying to live mine. But there’s so many things I wanna say to you, and I can count all the ways I try and play it cool. When I reach out to you, yeah I gather my strength and it fades like a cloud into the blue. It’s sad but true. All I can say is, “hey.” Hey, hey. All I say is: Hey, hey. But what I wanna say is.. Hey, I’m sorry. I don’t know if you feel the same, all I know is that I’ll always love you. I’m sorry. Hey, you’re welcome. We both made a mistake or two, all I know is that I tried hard not to hurt you. You’re welcome! You went to live your life, and I’m trying to live mine. But there’s so many things I wanna say to you, and I can count all the ways I try and play it cool. When I reach out to you, yeah I gather my strength and it fades like a cloud into the blue. It’s sad but true. All I can say is, “hey.” Hey, hey. All I say is: Hey, hey. Conversations in my head—I always get it perfect. But can I really say what’s on my mind, or at least some version? Here you are in front of me, what’s the worst that happens? I settle on half-honesty, polite and vague and classic.. Hey, how are you? I’m doin’ pretty good, I guess, all I know’s life’s crazy, what about you? How are you? Hey, it’s raining. Do you wanna come to my house and watch movies on the couch just like we used to? I miss you! There’s so many things I’ve tried to say to you, and I still don’t know why we do the things we do, but I feel like a fool ‘cause I promised myself I’d be better without you. It’s sad but true! Hey, hey, hey. Can we just start over? Hey. Hey, hey. I’m sorry. You’re welcome! I miss you. I love you. So thank you. Oh, woah.. I miss you.
