9 Canciones

9 Songs

Once I saw you, in a heartbeat I fell for you
Tried three times to talk to you, but I couldn't get through
But on the fourth try, I asked for your name
And you see, without knowing you, I never forgot your name

And suddenly, six summers later, without meaning to
It wasn't enough to see each other seven days a month
Eight weeks was the longest I could go without talking to you

I'm writing you nine songs
With a uncertainty that's about plus or minus 10
I'm reading you eleven lines
When it hits midnight, it all starts again
I'm writing you nine songs
With a uncertainty that's about plus or minus 10
I'm reading you eleven lines
When it hits midnight

In 2013, I started a band that let me see you more than I thought
And on February 14th, I forgot to tell you
How much I owe to those 15 days in January
That made us enjoy
16 is my favorite number, I love that I met you at 17
18 calendars, in 2019, I went through a lot of things
And I got a little lost
In 2020, I started over
Had to let the 21 fly
22 years of crazy, imperfectly perfect
Of which I think I wouldn't change a thing

I'm writing you nine songs
With a uncertainty that's about plus or minus 10
I'm reading you eleven lines
When it hits midnight, it all starts again
I'm writing you nine songs
With a uncertainty that's about plus or minus 10
I'm reading you eleven lines
When it hits midnight

Now at 23, I think I made it
I like what I do, things are going pretty well
I see little sadness, and even though I think of you too
It doesn't hurt to remember you anymore
And I always feel okay
Always okay, always okay

I'm writing you nine songs
With a uncertainty that's about plus or minus 10
I'm reading you eleven lines
When it hits midnight.
