I woke up and forgot my lover’s name
But that’s ok
Ours is a quiet kind of love
One that's meant to be forgotten
like the undying fate of everything that’s ever lived

Sometimes i want to tell everyone about her
I want to say to the world
THIS is the woman i love
This is my heart
I want to show everyone
the intricacies and the depth of my love
the deepest reflections of me in the woman i love

Maybe if they understood just how much i loved her,
they would finally love me
Maybe if they got a glimpse
of just how beautifully she reflects in my eyes
Maybe they would finally see me
I’m sure we’ll be united in love
I’m sure they’ll fall just as deeply as i have
But then, maybe not

Maybe they just wouldn’t get it
But then maybe
Will i start to doubt my love?
The purity of it
The sincerity, of my own reflection

If I can’t tell anyone about my love,
Will i still love her?
If no one gets it,
Will you still love me?
Somedays, I’m sure i do
Other days, i wake up and forget my lover’s name
