Lavender Lemonade - Cathedrals lyrics

You know it's funny
When you look at someone
Through rose colored glasses
All the red flags just look like flags

This feeling, it’s growing
It creeps into my heart
It climbs in every vessel
And it seeps in every part
And yeah this feeling, by now
It’s awfully familiar
I close my eyes and try to hide
And still it sends a shiver down my spine
It’s fine i know what now comes next
Already feel the butterflies that
Rise inside my chest
And as I wrap you in my arms
Let out a little sight
And pray to god this one will be the one
To keep me till I die
Thеy talk of golden palaces
Cathedrals built my dеar
Please be careful with your words
You might just cut
Straight through my veneer
And though they tell me to be patient
I struggle to keep time
And find that every hand to touch the glass
Gets intertwined in mine, mine, mine

This feeling, it's bigger
I fear it never stops it only grows
It only knows to care without a thought
And as it runs it's course
It's blind to every sign
Not because it cannot read but
Simply cuz it just declines
Cuz people love to take the fall it's true
They live off of that fear
But when there’s nothing there at all
The point of love gets lost my dear
But who am I to say
What really really counts and what
Just turns to rot
Because when all is said and done
It’s really all we’ve got

They talk of golden palaces
Cathedrals built my dear but
Please be careful with your words
You might just cut through my veneer
And though they tell me to be patient
I struggle to keep time
And find that every hand to touch the glass
Gets intertwined in mine because
This endless, painless cycle
Is a melancholy test
But does it truly lead to our true love?
Does one just rise above the rest?
Or do we choose to settle? Take
Control of our own minds
And spend the rest of life telling ourselves
The choice we made was right
Cuz in the end the way we feel will
Fade and it will start to dry
Like a picture in the sun that’s
Staring up into the sky
But if we know it won’t be worth it
Why do we fall?
Is it because we love the feeling
Or can’t stand the withdrawal?
They talk of golden palaces
Cathedrals built my dear
Please be careful with your words
You might just cut
Straight through my veneer
And though they tell me to be patient
I struggle to keep time
And find that every hand to touch the glass
Gets intertwined in mine, mine, mine

This endless, painless cycle
Is a melancholy test
But does it truly lead to our true love?
Does one just rise above the rest?
Or do we choose to settle? Take
Control of our own minds
And spend the rest of life telling ourselves
The choice we made was right
Cuz in the end the way we feel will
Fade and it will start to dry
Like a picture in the sun that’s
Staring up into the sky
But if we know it won’t be worth it
Why do we fall?
Is it because we love the feeling
Or can’t stand the withdrawal?
