Can T Swim Winter Of Cicada Lyrics
Winter Of Cicada by Can't Swim
I made some plans
And wrote them down
For both of us
They're in a book
Beneath my bed
With a photo on the front
The pages read
Of things we'd see
The ones you wanted most
I'd take you to the places that
I always said we'd go
And how can I be sure it gets better?
I've written every word, every letter
I just want to be wherever you are
Sure I can be whatever you want
I know it's harder to give than to get
You get what you give
And that's it
I just want to be, I just want to be
A kid I was
A teenager
A foolish one
The polo shirt
I'd always wear
You begged me to rip up
You pierced my nose
I shaved your head
You came to all my shows
And everyone would always say
"Don't ever let her go"
And how can I be sure it gets better?
I've written every word, every letter
I just want to be wherever you are
Sure I can be whatever you want
I know it's harder to give than to get
You get what you give
And that's it
You just need me
But I wasn't there
I know I never treated you fair
And how much longer
Will I regret
Taking the bet
That you'd quit?
I just want to be
So rip me apart
And put me right back
How you want
You just needed me
You just needed me
So how can I maintain?
You occupy my brain
But still I wait for you
It's the best that I can do
So dress me head to toe
Prepare me for the cold
The longest winter yet
Forever in regret
Forever in regret
And wrote them down
For both of us
They're in a book
Beneath my bed
With a photo on the front
The pages read
Of things we'd see
The ones you wanted most
I'd take you to the places that
I always said we'd go
And how can I be sure it gets better?
I've written every word, every letter
I just want to be wherever you are
Sure I can be whatever you want
I know it's harder to give than to get
You get what you give
And that's it
I just want to be, I just want to be
A kid I was
A teenager
A foolish one
The polo shirt
I'd always wear
You begged me to rip up
You pierced my nose
I shaved your head
You came to all my shows
And everyone would always say
"Don't ever let her go"
And how can I be sure it gets better?
I've written every word, every letter
I just want to be wherever you are
Sure I can be whatever you want
I know it's harder to give than to get
You get what you give
And that's it
You just need me
But I wasn't there
I know I never treated you fair
And how much longer
Will I regret
Taking the bet
That you'd quit?
I just want to be
So rip me apart
And put me right back
How you want
You just needed me
You just needed me
So how can I maintain?
You occupy my brain
But still I wait for you
It's the best that I can do
So dress me head to toe
Prepare me for the cold
The longest winter yet
Forever in regret
Forever in regret
