If You'd Let Me

I just brushed my teeth you know what that means

A mouth full of foam and i'm staring at me

I'm singing in your voice I've been practicing

Hoping one day to hear the real thing

And maybe you'd actually stand next to me

Spit on the back of my neck while I'm leaning in the sink

You laugh at me while I kiss your cheek

If you'd let me...

Now we have our plan, you giggled in your hands

You tried to convince me that the sounds in the trees

Footsteps in the woods, monsters up to no good

I'll take first watch if you promise you'll to sleep next to me

So I can learn your face with my hands

Just in case we never meet again

At least I'll have this memory

If you'd let me...

If you'd let me--

Working on the floor upon the jet stick tree fort

You know the one where we live away from everyone else

If were gonna keep them out we should find a taller tree

Move to the top so no one can see

We'll need thicker walls and a permanent guard

Now it's your turn to watch and it's my turn to sleep

Then it hit me, this whole time I've been asleep

And you were never even next to me it was just a dream

So I'll stay asleep and meet you in dreams

If you'd let me

If you'd let me...

If you'd let me....
