I Well Up

I don’t know the right answers

And I don’t know why I’m not bitter

It’s dry in the well

And there’s no one to tell

And there’s no one I’d rather love better

Ive been saying my hands hurt

Even though I haven’t been writing

Cause there’s no one better

And there’s no one worse

There’s just no one who touched me like you did

Just cause I won’t let them.

And suddenly I well up.

And unsuddenly I realize

I spent too much time in your eyes

And pretending I indulge in goodbyes

So yeah I well up.

And I pour into a tea cup.

And I over steeped it

Cause I didn’t wanna leave you

I didn’t wanna take you out

I just wanna keep you.

But I added some honey and cream

And I left you in my dream

And I well up and fill my cup

And I filled yours too

But it got cold cause you wouldn’t take a sip while it was hot,

So I put it back in the pot,

And poured it in mine again.

And I well up.
