all i do is spin around you

wake up with you in the morning

make sure there’s always flowers

on the island in the kitchen

there’s music while you’re cooking

we’re dancing with a candle

we’re laughing through a movie

i kiss you in your sleep

and you say you see right through me

i go to see your family

in new hampshire on the weekend

even though you hate my mother

you two are never speaking

we’re running on the beach and

taking pictures of the sun

now you’re losing sleep

and aren’t sure that i’m the one

all i do is spin around you

oo

all i do is spin around you

fly you out to california

and leave letters in your drawers

and make up a secret word

for when you weren’t feeling stable

did you ever build your castle

did you ever even care

that i wanted to die

i think that only made you scared

and i read seven books

so i would see from your position

i would understand your family

i would hear you when i listened

every time you cried

about the fears that you were facing

all you held inside

and everything you’re scared of saying

all i do is spin around you

oo

all i do is spin around you

when you said i was exhausting i believed you

i was hard to love and i was hard to lean to

i don’t even recognize me in my body

my perception of myself is how you saw me

you said you chose me more than i chose you

but i put you first more than i was supposed to

i built my world around you at the center

we were young and we were too dumb to know better

you called on the last day i was in paris

we were fighting and you said you couldn’t stand it

and i always talk you down when you couldn’t

i make sure that i’m around when i shouldn’t

and i need to learn to let you let me go now

cause you only hold me back and i hold you down

my heart is breaking every time i wake up

it’s impossible to swim inside the wake of us

all i do is spin around you

all i do is spin around you
