It took her one night
To set my bed alight
It took her two more
To sink her claws and then her claws were like an old ghost,
Were like an old ghost in me

It took me three days
To see that she was crazed
It took a hundred more
Of making sure that we were through
But she was not through, no she was not through with me
God knows how she braved that speech, oohh…

I love birds, I love bees
I love firsts, I love these
Summers sitting drinking under trees.
I love sparks, I love storms
I love lasts, I love long nights so fun that suddenly its dawn.
I love you baby, and everything else is just Gravy.

She wanted three words
I couldn’t give her
I wanted nothing
But I gave in and giving in was like the best thing
Was like the best thing
I’d had
Sliding down that slope, at last

I love birds, I love bees
I love firsts, I love these
Summers sitting drinking under trees.
I love sparks, I love storms
I love lasts, I love long nights so fun that suddenly its dawn.
I love you baby, and everything else is just Gravy.
