"Jump Rope Gazers" lyrics

"Jump Rope Gazers"

I've never been the dramatic type
But if I don't see your face tonight
I, I guess I'll be fine

High, highlighting hard between the lines
But they're getting closer every time
I try, decipher the signs

Like we're slowing comin' together
Yeah, it's slowly comin' out
About us

Oh, I, I think I love you
And I think that I loved you the whole time
How could this happen?
We were jump rope gazers in the middle of the night

Hide my heart behind a brighter light
So you struggle, straining eyes to find
Why we made it this way

Stay, my hopes are prone to elevate
The way your mind and mine relate
It breaks the patterns we make

Still, we're slowly comin' together
Yeah, it's slowly comin' out
But it's only for a second
Then it is all is crumbling down
Around us

Oh, I, I think I love you
And I think that I loved you the whole time
How could this happen?
We were jump rope gazers in the middle of the night
I think I love you
And I, I wanna give it my best try
How could this happen?
We were jump rope gazers

Oh, I remember watching the waves rollin' in
Numbered in the thousands, collect, break up again
I was just waitin' for the grazes on my hands to mend
I was afraid of the sting

Oh, ooh, I think I love you
And I think that I loved you the whole time
How could this happen?
We were jump rope gazers in the middle of the night
I think I love you
And I, I wanna give it my best try
How could this happen?
We were jump rope gazers
Oh, oh
