DMERS date

Traffic lights are bleeding red
But I’m waiting for the green
Ten minutes late again
Smelling of nicotine
You are the one I chase
Through every movie scene
Sorry girl, I can’t pretend
It’s a date, don’t you see

First date, playing lover
First date, playing friend
Every word goes undercover
This is how I bend
First date, playing lover
First date, playing friend
Every word goes undercover
This is how I bend

This is my voice memo
I’m not gonna send
This is my first time ever
I’ve changed the plan
If I wanted to be brave
I’d call you right now
But instead I’m talking to my phone
Rehearsing every vow

I wanted you to know that night changed everything for me
You smiled, and all my plans went quiet like the city after three
I’m writing lyrics for you, stuck to the piano
Don’t care that silk-black nostalgia just walked outta Milano

Hey
Yeah, it’s me
I’m… I’m just thinking about what’ve been
What have been tonight, and
Uh, the thing is
I had it all planned out
Every word, every single sentence
But then you smiled, and I just
I couldn’t
You’re not just a friend to me
You never were
I just don’t know how to be honest without losing you

First date, playing lover
First date, playing friend
Every word goes undercover
This is how I bend
First date, playing lover
First date, playing friend
Every word goes undercover
This is how I bend
