The Box Under My Bed - Ayria

I love when we sit and do nothing for hours

And put on music that reminds us of our past

The songs we loved since we met

We don’t skip the sad songs

Time’s gone by

Measured by the melodies that last

It’s all I’ll ever want

I’ve waited all my life

To say this to you today

I think we’re safe for now

So enjoy it

I don’t know when it will change

Sometimes late at night

I go into my room where I hide

Things to look through

My keepsakes of all the years

My memories

I keep them in a box under my bed

It’s nice to know

They’re near

Love me

You love me

Don’t leave me

You’ll love me

Love me

Don’t love me

You’ll love me

Don’t leave me

Remember that day on the island with sun shining

Through the trees sparkling like a thousand tiny diamonds

I felt so alive

Endless hopes about to fold

When I panicked

You calmed me down

Stopped me from breaking things

You see my darker side

It hasn’t phased you

To make you want to leave

You’re all I’ll ever want

Sometimes it takes a while to be able to see

Sometimes late at night

I go into my room where I hide

Things to look through

My keepsakes of all the years

My memories

I keep them in a box under my bed

It’s nice to know

They’re near

It’s true

I have a tendency

To live in the past

But I hope

In the future

You’re still here
