Flatsound The Cowardly Lion Doesn't Write Love Songs song lyrics

it's turning on the tv, when we were fourteen

you said "my mom's asleep, we won't get caught, do you wanna watch?"

and i could hear the traffic, that i know you're ignoring

but i let it in to my life to thicken the air i breathe

it was at the bus stop that a woman cried

and i could tell she was different, by the look in her eyes

and i don't know what she said, but i felt what she meant in her honesty

and i went to your house that night and i told u about

the womans eyes and the words in her mouth

and how i wouldn't mind to give her advice some day

but i'm a cowardly lion.

i'll leave quietly

if that means a better chance to commemorate what we had

when you were happy.

this isn't a love song, no, not in the least

i just miss you watchin' my tv when i'm writing

so i can hear you laughing

swear to god i still hear you when i close my eyes

and you tell me "i'm not gonna die"

like you used to, before i did this

you're the sunlight that i wished would leave

i'm the raincloud i don't wanna be because the more you're gone

the more i grow pale, i grow pale

you're the sunlight that i wished would leave

i'm the raincloud i don't wanna be because the more you're gone

the more i grow pale, i grow pale
