want to buy you clothes, an apartment
object crusted cove we could call home
i wanna fill, your pretty feathered wings
with pretty little things
we’d exchange some words over supper
i’ll prepare the dish and you’ll clean
i wanna know of all the things you dream
my pretty little thing
but when i gush nobody gets it
is it too much, this infatuation
warm in the cheek, you’d confess if you could speak
but they don’t see
not sure who i was before i met you
lived in dirty mugs and blue light haze
but i knew we were linked, when i saw you on the screen
in those pretty little things
speculated months before you reached me
what’s it like to clutch, to embrace
tenderly held, to love is to keep clean
my pretty little thing
i’d buy a ring, but who’d be the reverend
love is love, til she’s cast in resin or porcelain
is it enough if only we get it
nobody else can see
you’re my pretty little thing
