Cherry Blossom Boy

[Verse 1]

My cherry blossom boy, I can't avoid

The impending doom that loving you brings

You crashed into my life to my surprise

With your crooked smile and Woodstock tee

[Pre-Chorus]

It was over before it began

It all happened so fast

It was out of our hands

[Chorus]

I don't wanna live like this

But I don't wanna lose you now

We were bound to wither

Knew we wouldn't last, but it hurts somehow

I don't wanna let you go

Even though you let me down

All those summer nights

I was mesmerised till our time ran out

[Verse 2]

You left me with no choice

But to destroy the remainder of your clothes in my bedroom

But I'm mostly mad at myself for how I fell

'Cause my friends all told me that it was too soon

[Pre-Chorus]

It was over before it began

It all happened so fast

Till you cancelled our plans

[Chorus]

I don't wanna live like this

But I don't wanna lose you now

We were bound to wither

Knew we wouldn't last but it hurts somehow

I don't wanna let you go

Even though you let me down

All those summer nights

I was mesmerised till our time ran out

[Bridge]

It is what it was, fun while it lasted

And I could stay mad at the love you retracted

You stare like a child, there's no innocence here

And I bat my lashes completely aware

You're everyone's friend and nobody's prize

Led me astray like a thief in the night

Withdrew your affection until I was hollow

You live for today and you promise tomorrow

I don't wanna live like this

I'm just a number, I know it

A pitstop in your life

I never know when you're going

You rock me so gently, but twist like a knife

I'm like a manic fool

I wanna stay by your side like a disposable pleasure

A temporary hit

A treasure till you're bored, till you find something better

I can't stop checking my texts, I wanna say something clever

But guessing your games is like predicting the weather

[Chorus]

I don't wanna live like this

But I don't wanna lose you now

We were bound to wither

Knew we wouldn't last but it hurts somehow

I don't wanna let you go

Even though you let me down

All those summer nights

I was mesmerised till our time ran out
