Leiláh - Melancholy (feat. Phree) Lyrics

I'm a melancholy woman
I feel the world weigh heavy
I need a melancholy love
Because I never rest easy
Meet me in your dark deep blue
Cuz I've got a blue soul too
If I was your girl
I'd drink the rain in you
Only a melancholy love could ever keep up
Could ever swim with the tides in me
When she takes my hand
We can skip land and jump out into the sea
I need a melancholy woman
For when my heart sings low
I'll carry all your storms inside me
If you'll just let my winds blow
I hope you don't mind if I love you sadly
As long as I love you madly
Cuz that's the only kind of love I know
When you stop looking for love it will find you
Drowning in tears and pierced by blades you've learned to sharpen yourself
You've played make-believe to make people believe in your light
Turned it on just to catch a glimpse into the way it looks even if it isn't bright enough to identify
Love
Always reminded me of my empty
Always told a story about not existing whole enough to be given away so taking it seemed easy
My love
Made darkness appear pretty
Tied glow-sticks to my wrists tight enough to hold me still under the dark skies
I've cried rivers into pillows that you've whispered nothings to me on
But still
How sweet it is to be loved by you
My melancholy love
A song sung from the pit of your belly
You sip heartbreak through a straw slow and steady just to ensure it can be tasted
You've wasted no time, this whole time you were calling for my existence
And your persistence
I could only sit still in
Your patience wrapped the strength of forever around us like a new beginning
And I swear
I swear we were made for this
You said
I swear we were made for this
Turned a cold night into a sweet kiss and I prayed you would sweeten the rim of my emptiness
And you did
Look at me and see the way
Hope runs down my face
Only a melancholy love
Can help me make sense of this place
Hold me through my night, through my night oblivion
Swear that you can stand, stand my despair
I promise you my eyes, I'll make salt out of your name
I promise you my mouth, I'll speak you like a prayer
Hold me through my night, through my night oblivion
Swear that you can stand, stand my despair
I promise you my eyes, I'll make salt out of your name
I promise you my mouth, I'll speak you like a prayer
Hold me through my night, through my night oblivion
Swear that you can stand, stand my despair
I promise you my eyes, I'll make salt out of your name
I promise you my mouth, I'll speak you like a prayer
Hold me through my night, through my night oblivion
Swear that you can stand, stand my despair
I promise you my eyes, I'll make salt out of your name
I promise you my mouth, I'll speak you like a prayer
