about

Co-written with Brandon Payton-Carrillo.

lyrics

When I met you in an instant you became my closest friend
So can you tell me how we’ll ever get our hearts back on the mend
I used to trust you but you shook me to the core and I can’t see
How we’ll ever go together back to how we used to be

For the record I still love you it don’t matter what you’ve done
You’ll always be my favorite color both my moonlight and my sun
On a good day I remember how our bodies intertwine
You hurt me lately but you’re still my baby for the record

The smell of rainfall takes me right back ro how you liked your coffee cold
You made me feel like I was special like I had diamonds in my soul
But now it’s hazy it hurts like crazy whatever will become of me
I’m so afraid that we’re becoming another broken family

For the record I still love you it don’t matter what you’ve done
You’ll always be my favorite color both my moonlight and my sun
On a good day I remember how our bodies intertwine
You hurt me lately but you’re still my baby for the record

I can’t forget but I know I should take the bad with the good
My only option more or less is letting go of all the rest
