Great Blue Lakes

Poem/Lyrics about loving a jerk guitarist/singer

As I sit in the dark

Writing on the back of your lyrics

I can hear your laughter on the recording

And it makes my nose tingle

And my eyes fill up with tears

Like great blue lakes

Another Birthday had passed

And I was alone

And I found my way to you

From the moment I met you

I wanted to be in your arms

But they took me away too soon

And my nose tingled

And my eyes filled with tears

Like great blue lakes

I let it slip tonight

That I love you

But you didn’t hear me

Do you ever hear me?

I heard your voice on the phone

And I felt a pain in my chest

I though it was all figurative

And my nose tingled

And my eyes filled with tears

Like great blue lakes

You say one day

When you’re done with all your shit

We will get married

When will that day come?

Were you just lying?

Make it all go away

And my nose tingles

And my eyes fill with tears

Like great blue lakes

Make it all go away

Dry those great blue lakes

Go away

No don’t

As my nose tingles

And my eyes fill up with tears

Like great blue lakes

    Those great blue lakes may be flooded with happy waters one day and they’ll overflow onto a smiling face very emotional piece I loved it
