lyrics

the first night i kissed you, i laughed
like it was funny that someone like you was kissing someone like me
and it's still funny when i think about it
two years after the fact
and september nights
back when we could see the stars

you couldn't say i love you
so i just let you say yes
you couldn't tell me how you felt
so i let you tell me in colors

blue satin
blue satin

you couldn't hold my hand outside
the world was scary, staring at us
i tried to hold you down but instead i held you in
you were trapped inside something you thought you wanted
and i was trapped above
trying to love you as best i could

blue satin
you loved me like blue satin

purple velvet, psyllium husks, and your eyes in the middle of the night
trying to love you from the angles i couldn't even reach
hold you while you cry for the first time in 5 years
walking you home, tucking you in, and still not being enough

blue satin
i loved you like blue satin

but you couldn't see
the love i had in me
stored up for you like a reservoir
but you couldn't tell me
past the fabric in your hands
but you couldn't hold me
in another shade of blue
so i lost you

i lost you like
blue satin
blue satin
