"But You Did"
by Max PhineasYou never had to sit there
And look into my eyes
Drowning my sorrows with your glimmering smile
But you did
You didnt need to hold me
And lock me in your arms
When my world was shattered like mirrors in an earthquake
But you did
And you didnt have to kiss me
(My lips were trembling at your touch)
Bringing me home as long as I could smell you
But you did
And I would too
