// lovers are almost always sweeter in my dreams - oh, the painful and overwhelming and beautiful moment that comes when you wake up from a daydream and find a person, flawed and awkward and aching as anyone //

lyrics

i love the version of you living in my head
her smile’s just like yours, leaves me blinded
she holds me closely tracing sweetness on my lips
skin is warm where we kiss, soft and silent

she lets me be
all that i need
she lets me in and she lets me go

me and her go wild and drive all down the coast
we are salty, caked in sand and we don’t mind it
we build campfires and we make love in the car
i’m a big truck kind of woman, i’ve decided

she lets me be
all that i need
she lets me in and she lets me go
she lets me go

when we reach la we plant seeds in the yard
we both dream that we’ll grow herbs, green and vibrant
when we dance she puts her hands upon my hips
this is love, isn’t it, did i find it

she lets me be
all that i need
she lets me in and she lets me go
she lets me go

i love the version of you living in my head
i am hoping that i live in yours like that
