Lyrics Why Won't You Love Me - Timberwolf

Why Won't You Love Me

I float around this empty house
With ghosts from when you came around
But none of them fulfill me like you do
And after all this time, I don’t know why I find myself
Shining a light of broken mirrors
For the corner of your pupils
On the surface of this barren land
I sweep with my own eyes
For ruins of where our love used to grow
When graceful slender palms stretch like rockets to the moon
Dancing lazy in the crosswind
Swirling to and fro
But I’m tired of waking nauseous
Wondering if you lay dreaming
The same way that I always dream of you
And sometimes I feel fine
Convince myself we had our time
And surrender to the beauty of this tragedy 'til I find
Your jumper in the laundry
Your poems in my kitchen
And I see your face when I touch myself
You’re the blood in all of my lyrics
Like stars beyond a cloudy night
The cigarette without a light
A letter on your fallen father’s grave
Like a sunflower seed
That never tasted water
And never got the see the light of day
We’re beautifully wasted
But one question still remains
Why won’t you love me?
Was I ever really there?
Why won’t you love me?
Did I make it far too easy?
Why won’t you love me?
Under bright green fallen stars
Why won’t you love me?
Like trying to run from the moon
There’s no escape from loving you
And the horizon shows no clues
Or shelter for my refuge
And I’m tired of waking nauseous
Wondering if you lay dreaming
The same way that I always dream of you
And sometimes I feel fine
Convince myself we had our time
And surrender to the beauty of this tragedy 'til I find
Your jumper in the laundry
Your poems in my kitchen
And I see your face when I fucking touch myself
You’re the blood in all of my lyrics
Like stars beyond a cloudy night
The cigarette without a light
A letter on your fallen father’s grave
Like a sunflower seed
That never tasted water
And never got the see the light of day
We’re beautifully wasted
But one question still remains
Why won’t you love me?
For every moonlit sacred dance
Why won’t you love me?
Was I only second best?
Why won’t you love me?
Did I not touch you right?
Why won’t you love me?
For every month spent by your side
Why won’t you love me?
For every tear upon my shoulder
Why won’t you love me?
For every poem, every letter
Why won’t you love me?
For making love in your front yard
Why won’t you love me?
Under bright green fallen stars
WON’T you love me?
