Every Girl is a Silhouette

from Straw Songs: Vol. 1 by Jeff Straw

lyrics

I know nothing about you.
Let alone your name.
Every girl is a silhouette
Compared to who you'll be...
Pretend that I finally see.

Ease of ambition overcomes me
Knowing that I'm not alone.
Clearer thoughts are compounding.
Make me smile when you come home.

If you arrive here cold and wet,
Take all of your regrets. Hand them to me.

All the world is brighter….
Overexposed, like a photograph.
Suddenly, we feel no stranger
Than any strangers in our paths.

Unabashed and unconvinced
By the poisons in another's thoughts.
Open-minded, unashamed.
You absolve all the pain within my heart.

Patiently, I will wait.
Timidness is not my friend.
Honestly will resonate
Long after my heart's content:
Love that's resilient.

I want to know everything about you.
I want to know everything about me.
