a valentine's day song

from winter self by growing pains

/

lyrics

i kept the box of chocolates
that you gave me
for two months, in my closet
they were no longer tasty
but i kept them anyway
because i couldn't bear to throw you away

i like the caramel ones
cause they remind me of your eyes
i like the raspberry ones
they remind me of your smile
and then i ate them
i ate them really slowly
cause i wanted you to linger
for as long as you possibly could

this isn't a love song
cause we were never in love
this isn't a like song
that fourth graders think up
it's just a sorry
that i couldn't be the person that you wanted me to be

i kept the chocolates
though they had gone off
my mom said that's disgusting
i even kept the box
as a reminder
that you liked me just enough
to send me chocolates
it almost felt like love

and i hope
that you're having a good time
i hope you're ok
i hope that you're alright
maybe you'll call me
in the middle of the night
but if you don't, that's ok
i'm getting on just fine

i'm fine
