Marianna Bernardini

Haven't met you yet

With you I could go rob a car
Then drive right out of town
Bonnie and Clide in a cloud
Sunset bound

'Cause with you I would open my doors
I would wrestle on floors
I would open my legs
I would fold

With you I'd imagine all these things and more
But I haven’t met you yet

I'd tell you how I live in fear
List insecurities
All my reasons for screams, how at night I can’t sleep
But you’d save me from me
I won't be afraid you’d leave
And I’d write all my songs for you

With you I'd imagine all these things and more
But I haven’t met you yet

We’d live in our chocolate box
Far from that messy world
English countryside views
And a dog
That’s where you would wrap me around your arms on a cold winter night
With my head on your chest

With you I'd imagine all these things and more
But I haven’t met you yet

You’d be the anchor to my boat
The light on a dark road
Illuminating my way back home
My escape and my muse
Your lover and your cure
Bittersweet medicine
For our wide open wounds

With you I’d imagine all these things and more
With you I can give up my oscar winning role
With you
With you

But the sun always sets in the west
And I haven’t met you yet
