Lauryn Marie - The Writer
You talk a lotta good talk
Your words can keep me on lock
You repeat what i want and you promise me that
So i stay holding on while i wait for the action
★ pre-chorus ★
And honey now, my dreaming is big and my knuckles are white
I've figured out maybe i shouldn't give any more time
★ chorus ★
I am the writer
I am inventing the person i think you could be
I'm the igniter
Looking back, i think the magic all along was me
Cause i can't help but look for the best in you
But i can't be in love with the things i just hope you do
★ verse 2 ★
I'm not the type to give up
I find the shine in the rough
But it gеts to a point, baby, none of it's fair
When i've madе you a person that's not even there
★ pre-chorus ★
And honey now, my dreaming is big and the fit is all wrong
I've figured out maybe i've been putting off what i want
★ chorus ★
I am inventing the person i think you could be
I'm the igniter
Looking back, i think the magic all along was me
Cause i can't help but look for the best in you
But i can't be in love with the things i just hope you do
I just hope you do
★ bridge ★
I can't be in love with potential
I can't say it's all circumstantial
Some problems don't go away
Some people just never change
I can't be in love with potential
I can't say it's all circumstantial
Maybe i should go away
It's your choice if you wanna change
★ chorus ★
I am the writer
I've been inventing the person i think you should be
I'm the igniter
Looking back, i think the magic all along was me
Cause i can't help but look for the best in you
But i can't be in love with the things i just hope you do
I hope you do
I just hope you do
I hope you do
