lyrics

I filled my bed the same day you left
And filled my phone with combinations
Like I needed them to crack a code
Like there’s s mystery I’ve yet to unfold
God, I’m so impatient

Got marks on my skin from all the places we’ve been
And still some girls take paths frequently travelled

Oh, she followed your journey
All through my body
But if anybody wants me
I want it to be you

Oh, she followed your journey
All through my body
But if anybody wants me
I want it to be…
Who is this stranger in the mirror
I don’t recognize myself
Let alone the name of the woman in my bed

I do some things cause it’s easy
But with you I actually care
I have no excuse for my behaviours
I just hope you’re still there

Cause I got these marks on my skin from all the places we’ve been
And I wouldn’t mind if they stayed permanent
But sometimes I fold to tempting moments I know
Cause I’m too afraid to let go and give it all

Oh, she followed your journey
All through my body
But if anybody wants me
I want it to be you

Oh, she followed your journey
All through my body
But if anybody wants me
I want it to be you

I want it to be you
