{intro}
Keeping feelings to myself
I was writing for a living, but my career was on the shelf
And all my friends had planed away, to find a place where there’s better days
Where the pace of life doesn’t run away, in a concrete maze
And one’s loss ain’t another’s gain, rain falls every other day
We’ve got more can*ls than venice here, but overflowing drains
So, i got away
{verse 1}
I was on the plane, writing side effects from the life i’d left
Seeking morе, freedom to explore to live outdoors
And socialisе and make friends more
I found that place so beautiful
That i rode a bike round the fortress walls
Sweat dripped down after seven miles
So, i braked, to catch breath
Thought i’d take a swim
So, i rode up to the pier
And that’s, when i saw
You swimming in the lake
Laughing and making waves
Your tongue speaking words
With your mates that i couldn’t say
But then you looked over, smiled and waved
Where you from and what’s your name?
I answered back in a nervous way
And then somehow, asked the same
We shared stories and relaxed a while
The sun lit-up your pretty smile
Those green eyes like aurora lights in the winter time, borealis sight
Watching clouds split from the plane trails, as their smoke drifts
Sure our skin-screened from the suns kiss
Painting pictures in the blue sky with our daydreams
Then you invited me out
And we wondered round
The old part of town
Felt lost and found
We peaced the vlog
As the tourists tanned
And their kids shouted-out
From the merry-go-round
We ate pizza and cheersed alcohol
You bought earrings from a street stall
And candy from a sweet store
Then we climbed to the top of the hill to see the
Night inspired by the sun’s retire
And the sky lights as the streets admired
With local choirs and corn on the fire
These are the nights that my heart desires

And i know i ain’t the first boy
But i hope i am the last boy
To like a girl
To like this girl
And i know i ain’t the first boy
But i hope i am the last boy
I see her
More than words
{verse 3}
And i know i ain’t the first boy to like a girl
But i hope i’m the last boy to like this girl
Who i’ve lost to the world
But found in the words that i use in
Raps just poetry with music
Struck with the golden arrow from cupid
This piece for you, takes a piece from me
But gives peace of mind, cause emotionally
It’s hard to speak when you hardly see
Tend to lose the feeling when it’s far to reach
For better worse, i’d cross the seas
For long conversations under constellations
I’d write you songs, you’d fall asleep as i serenade them
All i need is a pencil and page
And you, at my adjacent
{hook}
And i know i ain’t the first boy
But i hope i am the last boy
To like a girl
To like this girl
And i know i ain’t the first boy
But i hope i am the last boy
I see her
More than words
