My Love

knitted sleeves hugging me

pulls me in when i slip

in a handful of minutes

you make me forget

deep down at the bottom

you pick me up

on the couch where we lie

there's no one acting tough

my love

my love

summer rain leaves fast, let us go

we're not getting younger

is it worthless if we don't last forever?

just stay a little longer

calm the chaos in me

kiss me gently all night

god, i love how it feels

safe here chasing fireflies

heavily anchored in water

but you pick me up

we sit on your kitchen floor

and talk about stuff

my love

my love

summer rain is not ours to hold

not getting any younger

let us stay here on the wet pavement

hoping we'll last a little longer
