Prompt: "Warming Up"

----Bug's Song-----

Title: Waiting for the Snow to Melt

Additional Challenge: cooooool

Lyrics:

 

You were the first one that I thought of

when the forecast called for snow

you said you'd race me to the bottom

and you took off down the slopes

You were the coolest on the mountain

making sure everyone knows it

taking shortcuts off the trail

while we just wondered "where'd he go"

 

You said the loser has to buy a beer

when we're back down at the lodge

and you knew I didn't drink

you also knew you never lost

I'd find you grinning, waiting for me

but I didn't mind the cost

it was worth it for the stories

when you got a little sloshed

 

now the mountains warming up as well

and we're just waiting for the snow to melt

 

cut to the crispest day of winter

you could see it in your grin

weaving past all the beginners

skiing faster than the wind

when I beat you to the bottom

that's when the fear kicked in

I MAY not know a lot but know

you'd never let me win

 

now we're just waiting for the snow to melt

 

We're just waiting for the snow to melt to find something we lost

someone taken by the mountain in a grave made out of frost

And when we find your body I will send word to your mom

she's the only one still holding on to hope after this long

 

yeah we're just waiting for the snow to melt

 

You had the kind of wild spirit everyone else tries to fake

you lived a life devoid of fear only an avalanche could take

now when our friends start drinking I'm the first to raise a toast

cause you're the first one that I think of when the forecast calls for snow

 

Now I'm just waiting for the snow to melt

to get a break and thing of something else

Title: Warming Up

Additional Challenge: Must be SHARP

Lyrics:

you're just warming up to me now

i know that i can be a little too much sometimes

alright maybe most of the time

I know that I'd struggle to love someone like me but

 

You can see it

You can see it

You can feel the swing and sway

All my crazy, random flailing

Looks like dancing when you do it with me

Can't you feel it

Can't you feel it

 

I'm just warming up to this now

Not so long ago I would sooner die than be known

But you are gentle and slow

And the further this goes i swear to god it's almost like

 

I can see it

I can see it

Strap me to the spinning lathe

Take your tools to all my failings

Decorate the floor as you cut them away

I can see it

I can see it

 

But now I'm realising I could see it all this time

Oh why do I only like myself when I'm reflected in your eyes

 

I can see it

For the first time

How I outsourced all my smiling to you

How I gave in

Gave up learning

Let you carry me cause you offered to

How'd I miss this

How'd I miss this

How'd I miss this

 

How I'll miss this

How I'll miss this
