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.
