Jay-Elle - Wishing Wells

Nostalgia draws lines in the palm of my hand
I watch her creep in and color my plans
The past and the future feel all the same to me
I kiss my lovers like they've already left
Why does love always seem like some kind of theft?
The old and the new feel both borrowed and blue to me
Remind me when pain felt so gentle
I've always been so sentimental
Lie here like you're honest
And keep me like a promise
Your touch is serrated and I'm paper thin
Make yourself right at home down deep under my skin
And just hold me like I'm fragile
Please stay here for awhile
Oh let me imagine forever with you and then leave me like all of the rest do
The man in the moon he got lost in my eyes
Two wishing wells spilling over the side
I let us both down, tried to swim and he drowned in me
I build walls around ruin, cover up when I'm bruising
'Cause it's only human to hide away
I never trust easy when people get greedy
Is it so needy to ask you to stay
And remind me when pain felt so gentle
I've always been so sentimental
Lie here like you're honest
And keep me like a promise
Your touch is serrated and I'm paper thin
Make yourself right at home down deep under my skin
And just hold me like I'm fragile
Please stay here for awhile
Oh let me imagine forever with you and then leave me like all of the rest do
Let me imagine forever with you
(Oh lemme imagine, oh lemme imagine)
Go on and leave me like all of the rest of them do
Lie here like you're honest
And keep me like a promise
Your touch is serrated and I'm paper thin
Make yourself right at home down deep under my skin
And just hold me like I'm fragile
Please stay here for awhile
Oh let me imagine forever with you and then leave me like all of the rest do
