darling if i'm honest

if i'm honest,
you've been on my mind all day
and lately,
if i'm honest,
i can't bring myself to think no other way

i've been doing all kinds of reckless things
to forget your face
going out on the town,
spreading around all that love i kept for you

but no one touches me like you used to
it's a shame, but it's true
nobody loves me the way that you used to

darling,
i've been moving,
through seas of faces hoping to meet your stare
dancing,
towards any strangers who have your crazy eyes
or wavy golden hair

i've been trying all kinds of useless ways
just to push it all down
like spinning around,
spinning around, till i fall straight to the ground

but no one touches me like you used to
it's a shame, but it's true
nobody holds me the way that you used to

so i painted over all the cracks
but now your paint is peeling back

it's a shame, but true
nobody loves me the way that you used to
