lyrics

Tried to find someone who could stand me ‘till I met the girl of my dreams and made her a reality
Now I’m stumbling over my anxiety cuz I hope to god she would never lie to me
I’m known to be paranoid but this time is different ‘cuz when I look in her eyes I feel my purpose
Like those were the lips I was meant to kiss, it’s like she brings out my inner romantic
And I’m awkward, manic, sometimes erratic, instead of salting my wounds she hands me a bandage
Instead of judging my demons she helps me manage ‘till the voices in my head start to sound angelic
The wars I’ve fought could be described as hellish but I would do it all again just to reach her heaven
I’d walk through lava as a frame of reference to make sure she doesn’t suffer a single second
I’d live in a pit of snakes serving a life sentence if I ever hurt her, that’d be my repentance
I’m a man of many mistakes, prone to repression but I promise I will never rely on aggression
I know I have what it takes to put a smile on your face, I don’t put it on luck, I have you on good faith
I turn into mush when you look my way, if my heart must give up, know it was yours to take

[Chorus:]
I’ll be right by your side! I’ll be right by your side! I’ll be right by your side! Along for the ride!

Do you remember when we went to the Japanese Garden surrounded by beauty that rainy days in Long Beach ensue?
You kept your eyes on the Koi Fish and bonsai trees but I kept mine on you
Do you remember the punk rock show with the bands we didn’t know the fire inside you was aglow, but I told myself to take it slow
I’m trying to be patient but you’re making me nervous just know that I think every bit of you is worth it
And if I’m going for this I’m making damn sure I’ve earned it, you only reap what you sow when you really deserve it
I’m so high off of you my mind might explode, wanna strip you down till all I can see is your soul
Imagine all of the places that we could go after I’m done playing these shows
Can only screw this up in so many ways so all I’m thinking about is kissing your face
Did you ever think you'd fall in love with a poet who'd climb mountains for you and plans to show it?
Our biology sparked this chemistry and the rest is history, I struggle to explain the psychology of what you do to me
But I can clearly see that you’ve got some super powers and I find it kismet that we have the same favorite flower
So if we’re gonna do this then let’s get to it, every time I see you my brain cues the music
And I’ve probably relied too much on emoji’s but things like that illustrate you're my queen
A Sunday brunch in Spring gave way to a fling and a fling was a key to the biggest heart I’ve seen
And I’ve seen a lot but none of it compares to you, please realize I’ll only ever sing this song for you

[Chorus] (x2)
