Lyrics

Cats

I won't leave you, 'cause I still love you So it's up to you if you choose to go In the meantime, sleeping by my side Our two cats, making sure I'll be alright You say, "It's so hard" But it feels simple to me It feels so simple to me So I've been trying to stop trying To be like someone you'd still like Maybe if I could, you already would 'Cause I still love you, so I won't leave you Guess it's up to you if you choose to go In the meantime, rescues at my side Our two cats, both asleep by me tonight Maybe tomorrow night The cats will be nowhere in sight But I'll be glad to know Thеy're out following their heart's dеlight
