The Part That Feels Like Melting

These trees don’t bother whispering

You can feel them draw a bead

The glimmer of their gravity

Holds you here with me

So please meet me at the river

with the cool mist sleeping on the water

this September rain don’t satisfy my thirst

Let your kisses cover me

Let the autumn colors smother me


	It’s the part that feels like melting that comes first

Round here the sun don’t linger

That’s why I have to pull you in

When you tell me this is stronger

I’m scared the fall just might begin

So please meet me at the river

I want to sleep beneath your water

Like the tears still sleeping deep inside my chest

Let your blood wash over me

Behold your radiant identity

It’s the part that feels like melting I like best
