Foye

from Ribbons - The LP by Elikah

lyrics

She's picking out ribbons from her long brown hair
5 years to go 'til she'll learn how to care
About the boys in the bar with their eyes like the sun
Burning through day waiting for midnight to come.

And we're falling apart on the doorsteps again
We're hunting for keys while we're shushing our friends
Ferme la porte and take her up the stairs
Back through the house church mouse don't wake her dad

(Chorus)
Here I'm falling apart at the seams
I'm wrapping up reason these days
Tearing through the promises I've made
So now I'm picking up the pieces while holding back the tears in my eyes

If I'd kept my reason my temperate will
Showin self-control, pity, maybe some skill
I'd have loved you as truly I think you deserve
So guess this is sorry for losing my nerve

(Chorus)

There is a reason, there is a reason that she won't let go
