Dahlia Grizzard - Nightsmoke Lyrics

I would've told you that I love you
But I was far too scared
So I let the smoke out from our mouths
Speak for us instead
And the phantom of us intertwined
Curled above our heads
Let the waters of the fountain roar out
For my heart instead
If I could you know I would
Write it all over a lantern in big bold strokes
Launch it into the sky
But I can't tell you it's a secret prayer
Same as the one you folded small
Tucked in the Jerusalem wall
And I would say see you next lifetime
Like Erykah Badu
But you don't even believe in next lifetimes
So we're both just screwed
And you would say it's all in God's plan
If that still worked for you
But now you don't believe in God
Between us that makes two
If I could you know I would
Write it all over a lantern in big bold strokes
Launch it into the sky
But I can't tell you it's a secret prayer
Same as the one you folded small
Tucked in the Jerusalem wall
I would've told you that I love you
But I was far too scared
So I let the smoke out from our mouths
Speak for us instead
And the phantom of us intertwined
Curled above our heads
Let the waters of the fountain roar out
For my heart instead
