Shortstraw - If I'm the Tide Lyrics

I just wish I was a little bit more
Ordinary when shit hits the fan
If I was a lifeboat then
Am I Tesla or am I Edison?
And I wouldn't be alone
I wouldn't need to waste my time on you
Oh, I'd hate to be a man
Oh, a man who couldn't follow through

And you can't write shit like this
You can't write shit like this
You can't write shit like this
Trust me, I learned from experience

So cute
So sweet
How our bodies spin perfectly
When we sleep
When we spoon
If I'm the tide, baby, you're the moon

And I don't care if you don't look like a movie star
I've relied on my imagination thus far
And it's a sin to find a metaphor for beauty
You're my only audience if you want you can glue me

And you can't write shit like this
Your face when you're furious
Just please don't publish this
Trust me, it's getting kind of serious

It's so cute
It's so sweet
How our bodies spin perfectly
When we sleep
And we spoon
If I'm the tide, baby, you're the moon

Get low, when you brood
We fell in love, yeah, we fell too soon
You speak
And I swoon
If I'm the tide, baby, you're the moon

I just wish I was a little bit better at this
And a little better at that
I just wish I was a little bit better at things
Or a little bit better at life

It's so cute
It's so sweet
How our bodies spin perfectly
When we sleep
And we spoon
If I'm the tide, baby, you're the moon

Get low, when you brood
We fell in love, yeah, we fell too soon
You speak
And I swoon
If I'm the tide, baby, you're the moon
If I'm the tide, baby, you're the moon
If I'm the tide, baby, you're the moon
