As I sit alone
Cold to the bone
Wishing I was grown
And on my own

I feel the ground
Under my feet
Step by step
To your street

Take your hand
As planned

Vanish into the garden
To be forgotten
Amongst the cottons

Just you and I
Cuz your the guy
Who takes me high
Into the sky
Flowing through clouds
Like Taylor through crowds

Just you and I
The Perfect Lie
