Your Shirt
Yearning Echoes: Chelsea Cutler's Melodic Tale of Love and Loss
Lyrics
This time it don't feel like you want it all
This time, it doesn't feel like you desire everything.
Did I do somethin' wrong to make you go?
Did I make a mistake that caused you to leave?
Said I would know when it's all good to fall
I promised myself I'd recognize when it's safe to fall in love.
Now I just need you here to hold me close, oh
Now, I just need your presence to comfort me.
'Cause I don't want another heart to fill the holes
I don't want someone else to replace you and fill the emotional gaps.
That you left under my covers for me to grow cold
You've left emotional voids in my life that are now making me feel cold.
I don't wanna miss somebody who's not missin' me
I don't want to long for someone who isn't missing me in return.
But the city feels so lonely when you leave, yeah
The city feels desolate when you're not around.
My room, where I want you
My room is where I want you.
Tangled ease in my sheets
We're entangled comfortably in my sheets.
In your shirt that I got you
I wear your shirt that I gave you.
Half asleep, holdin' onto me
Half asleep, you're holding onto me.
My bed where you left me
My bed is where you left me.
Tangled up, now it's noon
We're entangled, and now it's noon.
In your shirt that you gave me
I'm wearing the shirt you gave me.
Half asleep, wishin' I still had you
Half asleep, wishing I still had you.
Half asleep, wishin' I still had you
Reiteration of the desire to have you back while half asleep.
This time you said you're playin' games again
This time, you mentioned playing games again.
What are we becomin' of it now?
Questioning what our relationship has become.
It's fine, I said, if you're the one in my head
Accepting that it's okay if you're the one occupying my thoughts.
'Cause I just don't know how to put you out
Struggling to let you go because I don't know how.
'Cause I don't want another heart to fill the holes
Resisting the idea of someone else filling the emotional voids you left.
That you left under my covers for me to grow cold
Feeling the emptiness you left under my covers.
I don't wanna miss somebody who's not missin' me
Not wanting to miss someone who doesn't miss me in return.
But the city feels so lonely when you leave
The city becomes lonely in your absence.
My room, where I want you
Desire for you in my room.
Tangled ease in my sheets
We're comfortably entangled in my sheets.
In your shirt that I got you
Wearing your shirt that I gave you.
Half asleep, holdin' onto me
Even in a half-asleep state, you're holding onto me.
My bed where you left me
My bed is a reminder of where you left me.
Tangled up, now it's noon
Entangled, and now it's noon.
In your shirt that you gave me
Wearing the shirt you gave me.
Half asleep, wishin' I still had you
Half asleep, still wishing I had you.
I'm half asleep, wishin' I still had you
Reiteration of being half asleep and wishing for your presence.
