Christmas Jumper

from One Day EP by Ben James Miller

lyrics

It seems these days the grip around my pinky is that little bit lighter
I'd bring it up in conversation,but I don't wanna fight her
Now and then I'm a little bit frightened
The space between our palms has widened
our fingers always pointing at the enemy
Remember the days she was nothing but a friend of me.
She left me kisses in the mirror in her lipstick.
Never thought I'd see the day my clothes would be ripped into six fifths.
in the reflection of my room she had written down six digits,
and despite my appetite I couldn't quite deal with it.

So she left me a message to say goodbye
and i said "don't go, you're the apple of my eye."

She don't wanna stay, I don't wanna go, I don't wanna hurt her no more
I don't wanna go, she don't wanna stay, I can only stand in her way.

I can't help but love her when shes in my christmas jumper,
Taking cautious sips out of that starbucks that I bought for her
To replace the things I broke just like I broke her trust and heart;
playing hearts, playing hearts, playing hearts is never smart.
You shouldn't tell me that you want me if you don't do
Should not react to what I do or what I do not do

So let's pretend that we never existed
Leave it all behind, since you insisted upon it.

I wanna wake up where you are but my hearts in my mouth and the words they wont come out
