underneath the sheets cuz I swear there will be time for you tomorrow =
yeah, yeah, yeah the hood of your car and the Florida skyline you told =

like ivy entwined you are all of my songs and the sun as it shines so =
much beauty and style what a beautiful smile like the perfect picasso =

and my stomach gets weak as your voice comes through the line the air is =
quiet, calm, and still just as it always and forever will and my radio =
plays the same old song and it makes me forget that you are gone
