Eyelashes

I watch you while you're sleeping
Your eyelashes they flutter
I wonder what you're dreaming
The pictures and the colors
What I would give to just be
The blanket on your body

I love you
And it scares me
Just how easy
You could destroy me

Hands are in the dirt and
Knees are stained with daisies
I want it to be perfect
The growing comes with aching
There's nothing that I know more
Than what the heart is built for

I love you
And it scares me
Just how easy
You could destroy me

The joy and terror
I am aware of
All is fair in loving you
The peace the pressure
Brick and feather
Fall together loving you
Loving you
Loving you

I love you
And it scares me
Just how easy
You could destroy me

I watch you while you're sleeping
Your eyelashes they flutter
