Girl
Clarke Lyrics

You make me wish that
You are causing me to have a strong desire that

Skies were clear
For everything to be simple and easy to navigate

The thoughts of my night time
The deep and complex emotions I experience when I'm alone with my thoughts

That I hear
That have been left unshared and unexplored by me

Are unique to my time
Are specific to my current mental and emotional state

And my fears
And the things I am afraid of confronting in myself

Of what I hold close
Of the parts of myself that I keep hidden and protected

How could you understand me
It's difficult for you to relate to my experiences and emotions

Cuz I've never explained
Because I haven't felt comfortable sharing these parts of myself yet

Keep what I keep contained and unnamed
I conceal and avoid discussing my innermost thoughts and feelings

I put a lot behind to seem okay and unafraid
I often hide the depth of my emotions and thoughts for fear of judgment or vulnerability

I put up all these gates to seem, unphased
I create a facade of emotional stability to avoid being perceived as weak or flawed

You've seen me at my worst
You have witnessed me at my most vulnerable and emotional

You've been there through my hurt
You have supported me through my emotional pain and turmoil

I wish it was as simple as you answering alerts
I wish that our communication was effortless and straightforward

You don't know how to take it when I say I'm close to burn
You struggle to understand the depth of my emotional distress

My flame a different color than the embers you have learned
My emotions are complex and unique in a way that you may not fully comprehend or relate to

And that makes us different, than we thought
Our distinct emotional experiences and perspectives create a divide between us

Know it's hard to listen, when I'm lost
It's difficult for you to understand and support me when I'm struggling emotionally

You can't help but fixate, on our faults
You tend to focus on the negative aspects of our relationship

We've managed through mistakes, at costs
We've been able to overcome obstacles in our relationship, often at the expense of our emotional wellbeing

Baby I
My love

I feel like I'm falling again
I'm experiencing a familiar sense of vulnerability and emotional turmoil

And I wish it was clearer to you
I hope that you could understand what I'm feeling and experiencing better

Hey, hey, yeah yeah yeah yeah
An expression of emotional energy and closeness

I just hope that one day I will go where you can follow
I hope that we can continue to grow and support each other emotionally

I promise when I make it it'll feel just like the lotto
I anticipate that overcoming our challenges will bring incredible feelings of joy and satisfaction

You can share it with me, you and I will be the motto
We can celebrate our accomplishments and support each other through difficulties together

I'm talking bout forever, I ain't never try to borrow
I'm committed to a long-term relationship and hope to avoid temporary solutions or bandaids

But for now, let's stay on earth
Let's remain grounded in reality and focus on our present experiences

In the clouds gone be dessert
We can still embrace joy and pleasure, even during challenging times

And I tell you, for what it's worth
Honesty and authenticity in my words

When I'm with you, what hurts don't hurt
Being close to you mitigates my emotional pain and helps me feel supported

So maybe we can go somewhere to eat
Let's share a meal and enjoy each other's company

See the sun set down past all the trees
Experience natural beauty and a sense of calm and serenity

When the light meets your face off the leaves
Appreciate the way light interacts with nature and enhances its beauty

Shit that make me feel like I don't ever wanna leave
Experiences that bring intense joy and fulfillment and a sense of wanting to prolong them

You know that I got my, plenty issues
I have my own set of emotional challenges and flaws

But I know you don't mind, you say it fits you
You accept and love me, flaws and all

Look at me with both eyes, say I miss you
Expressing affection and longing for me

You know how the goodbyes go but won't admit to
You understand how difficult goodbyes can be, but don't like to confront or acknowledge their emotional weight

But we might just have one again, we might just have one again
We may have to confront the pain of separation or distance in the future

I don't want you wasting your time
I don't want to cause you undue emotional pain or frustration

So don't let me make this forever for us, don't make up your mind
Don't make long-term decisions based on my current emotional volatility

While I can't predict what could happen to us, that's for us to find, sometime
I can't know what the future holds for our relationship, but we will face it together

And you could be my, be my, be my, foreva girl
You could be my partner and companion for the rest of our lives

Could you be my, be my, be my, foreva girl
An expression of commitment and affection
