the art of letting go - Phora, Destiny Rogers

Lately, I’ve been dreamin' about you, baby

It’s hard to stay asleep, it breaks me

I hope you realize you changed me

I wish, yeah I wish that we could have what we had before

Times I’ve opened up, never felt ignored

I hope I’ll always be there, with you for sure

Your love will be the death of me but I still want more

Yeah, hope you still smell me on your pillows when you’re layin' down

And feel me standin' next to you, knowin' I ain’t around

You said my eyes were the sweetest solace you ever found

Filled with hidden truths and the ocean blue that can make you drown

My heart was burnin', you watch more of it melt

I fell in love with a girl who was at war with herself

I tried to show her my scars and I don’t know if it helped

But the more we tried to hide the way we hurt, the more that we felft

'Cause I was, broke down, I needed you to console me

And trust me and take the time to show me

But you see the things that they don’t see

I never thought that you would leave me lonely

Look, I know you need someone

Thought that I could be the one

Used to stay up with you all night, talkin' 'til we see the sun

Eventually, the mornin' comes, I had to watch you leave

I never thought you feel the need to run but maybe it was me

We closed our eyes, I held your hand and to the stars I would take you

Know you pointed all your flaws but your scars are what make you

I know the feeling, nothing hurts more than being disappointed by the person

that you trusted, never thought they would break you

But still I, give my trust away, like I never been hurt before

We give our love away 'til our feelings don’t work no more

We close our hearts away to the one we should open for

But in this world full of people, you’re still who I’m searchin' for

Lately, I’ve been dreamin' about you, baby

It’s hard to stay asleep, it breaks me

I hope you realize you changed me

I wish, yeah I wish that we could have what we had before

Times I’ve opened up, never felt ignored

I hope I’ll always be there, with you for sure

Your love will be the death of me but I still want more
