Shook

Word Thingys: Salome Strangelove

Fell for you the day before you fell for me
You always say the reverse
You always gotta be first
Heard you sing and, baby, it was poetry
You always gotta dissent
Every fucking compliment

But it’s never been up to me or up to you
No point to debate
Fate’s just gonna fate
And it was easy just so easy
So I never second guessed
You made it easy just so easy
Of this I can attest
I was flirting with divinity
Bait dangling on a hook
Heard you, saw you, felt you
I was shook

Was it a date that night or just a drink
Never could just agree
Early insecurities
Next thing I knew my hand was in your hand
Not sure how it got there
Never really cared

And it’s never been up to me or up to you
No point to debate
Fate’s just gonna fate
And it was easy just so easy
So I never second guessed
You made it easy just so easy
Of this I can attest
I was dancing with divinity
Bait dangling on a hook
Heard you, saw you, felt you
I was shook

And it’s been easy — so so easy
To love you all along
It’s been easy — so so easy
Every time I hear your song

‘Cause it’s never been up to me or up to you
Nothing there to debate
Fate’s just gotta fate

It’s still easy just so easy
To never second guess
Easy just so easy
Of this I can attest
You are poetry, divinity
And I’m an open book
When I see you, hear you, feel you
Every single time, now
I’m still shook
