Robert

Robert you're an old soul with the smile of a child, and eyes that tell the story of a romantic reconciled, You say "I hate to break it to you since I'm leaving in July, But I've found love in your face and your red shoes, it's so contrived And you probably won't remember since you're drowning in your drink, But I won't forget your modern mind as long as I live", But Robert I remember the tears you wiped away, And how we both cried in the bar as I begged you to stay Robert you're a kind man, I love to hear you speak, You teach me words in German and try not to laugh at me, Then I run my hand down your back as you pull my tangled hair, And you whisper bout how you wish we could always breathe this air Then you tell me bout your parents, tell me all about your life, About the suitcase that you used to lose on every single flight, And Robert maybe it foreshadows where we are tonight, Because you'll lose me like you lost it at an airport in July Oh lost were my wide eyes as I watched my body fall, Now on the ground your hands are gone, A life without you sounds so long Robert don't you disappear, I need your pretty lies about how lovers always meet a second time Oh lost were my wide eyes as I watched my body fall, Now on the ground your hands are gone, A life without you sounds so long And I kick the grass, curse at the clouds, Were you just a mirage, Cause on the ground your hands are gone, A life without you sounds so long, I just blinked your hands are gone, A life without you sounds so long
