I Let You Win

Our yellow house

Built on a hill

I’m always climbing

And you’re watching

From the window sill

I wish i was stronger

I wish my lungs were mine

Breathing in and out in and out while

You’re rising up i’m shrinking down

I roll over and let you win

Shrug your shoulder when i let you win again

When you win like you do

And you always do

I lose

You’ve always been taller

Like a waterfall

Green eyes getting darker

I’m feeling so small

When you win like you do

And you always do

I lose

I’m a statue

Standing with you

You’re staring

Right on through

I’m shaking like I do

Dreaming of waking up

Without you

I roll over and let you win again

Shrug your shoulder when i let you win again

When you win like you do

And you always do

I lose

You’ve always been taller

Like a waterfall

Green eyes getting darker

I’m feeling so small
