Up late on a moonless night

Still, I find myself in reminisce

I really miss your kisses, after every fight

It’s none of my business but do they lips make your heart go the distance,

Do you sit and reminisce like I do?
Wishing they touch you like I use to touch you,
Hold you like, I would hold do,

I hope they understand your worth
Worship each of your steps on this earth
Do what I couldn’t do and place you first

Call you beautiful for all the times that I forgot to,
Say I love you when I was too stubborn too,
Spit nothing but the truth
Fuck your mind before they make love to you

If I could go back, I would Sacrifice my pride
Instead, now all I can do is testify
I hope they know to try when I couldn’t try

Still, I find myself in reminisce
Up late on a moonless night,
I hope they know to kiss you after every fight
Hold you tight into every morning light

Do you sit and reminisce like I do?
