cornelia street
(based on taylor swift’s cornelia street)
Tonight we drank ourselves silly
I saw you nearly stumble and fall
Yet I know this giddy feeling
Is not from the drinks at all
I tell the driver to drop us off
At my apartment, tout de suite
It’s beautiful, painted rosy pink
On the lovely Cornelia Street
You stay the night, we have a good time
But our heads hurt when we wake
I desperately search for lyrics to write
As you make us tea to soothe the ache
Months and months go by
And how I love you so
But do you love me like I love you?
How am I to know?
Suddenly I worry you don’t feel the same
I leave the apartment behind
I’ve never had someone truly care
Even when they seemed sweet and kind
I’m driving away when I get your call
You tell me you love me, you ask me to stay
I turn the car around, come right back home
I didn’t really want to go anyway
Years have passed now, we’re doin’ great
We’ve found a place in this world we fit
One day we come back to this beautiful home
And it hasn’t changed a bit
I love you so much my heart might explode
I’m so glad we got to meet
But if I ever lose you like I did the others
I’ll never again walk our street
