J.R. High Love - Eligh, Rêverie

I miss the days of being in love with someone so hard

That you could no longer feel the ground beneath your feet

I only felt this way in J.R. High when I was sprung on someone so young

Without even touching tongues

Or brushing up against her in the hallway

Passing quickly, too shy, so I’d write a letter

And you know that I was better at writing than talking

Whether hiding or in plain sight

You might say, I’m still that way, look at me now

Writing a song about true love and I don’t even know your name yet

Your just a vague impression of what I want you to feel like

I will not settle for rock or pebble

I’m searching for precious metal

Luscious flower petals

Brushed in monogram tea kettles, hot love

Killing off the meek, hello

J.R. high love

We got that J.R. high love (got it, you got it)

We got that J.R. high love (you got it, you got it, you got it)

We got that J.R. high love (you got it)

We got that J.R. high love

We got that J.R. high love (we got it, we got it)

We got that…

Honestly it’s hard for me to think about that thing — love

How am I supposed to know your intentions are true between, us?

It’s hard for me to focus

If you ain’t noticed

Before this, I’ve been scarred

So you know this

My knees weak and now you won’t see me again

I’ll leave that shit

Keeping a love that deep I really don’t believe in it

I used to want romance, to slow dance

I used to put my heart in the hands of a man

I tried to make him treat me like I seen in the movies

But expectations only led disappointment to me

But you be, treating me like a queen

That’s why I push away low self-esteem

And now I’m feeling royalty

This what I deserve, boy you spoil me

But, forever’s essence — evanescence

Change is constant, stability is deception

I’m tryna open up my mind, but the realism in me won’t let me

My heart is empty

J.R. high love

We got that J.R. high love (got it, you got it)

We got that J.R. high love (you got it, you got it, you got it)

We got that J.R. high love

If you just hold on

Dusk turns dawn

Lust turns to love

Heartbreak is gone

Time heals all wounds

One day you hate love

Next day you make love

Renegade to married on the front lawn

As we grow, we start to attract the right one

Give your spirit a chance to advance

Before you lock hands

With a cancerous man or woman in the bright sun

One can see all flaws

When flaws are accepted

And love is unconditional then slow down

Stop the fight, you might of pulled the trigger on the right gun

I’d kill for love, I’d kill for my wife and my unborn son

It’s that J.R. high love

J.R. high love

We got that J.R. high love

We got that J.R. high love

We got that J.R. high love
