Blades

Arlo Parks

9

I′m exhausted

Watching like Claire Danes through the water

Kitchen light like blades through your bodyThe party's ablaze

We grew apart when you were fighting with your sister, I

Don′t think I realized how horribly I miss you now

Regret is flowering inside me while I'm scooping ice

Hope you know that I

I just don't know what to do

′Cause I

Only wanna be with you

I remember

There was something strangely romantic

In our friendship, we were dramatic

I wept in your arms

Talking for hours on the gravel, letting our backs burn

Walking to Boxers linking pinkies, wearing matching pearls

And now I′m struggling, I'm choking up without the words

Hope you know that I, I just don′t know what to do

'Cause I only wanna be with you

I just miss your voice, say you′ve been alright

Calling when you're lonely, late at night

′Cause I only wanna be with you

So I make my way over as the white lightning zigzags

And you're with Ahmed, plum red slacks and tequila frazer

And you laugh the same, hand on mouth 'cause you hate your teeth

And I love your teeth and I′m scared to speak

′Cause I catch a whiff of your rosetip tea

And I, I just don't know what to do

′Cause I only wanna be with you

I just miss your voice, say you've been alright

Calling when you′re lonely, late at night

'Cause I only want to be with you

Only wanna be with you

O-only wanna be with you

Only wanna be with you
