Chandelier Thief

Second hand coffee grinds sit in water
Bed sheets with flowers balled up like fists
At the end of the mattress
I wish you were the bird outside of my window

Making it hard to leave
Hovering over me like a chandelier thief
Blue eyes steal me
I never asked you to watch me in my sleep
Sitting in a room of candles
Wishing that the power went out

Light pours from your face
Be thankful for the floor it leads you to a new place
The thickest wall, the most trustworthy thing that you know
Blue eyes steal me

So hover over me like a chandelier thief
A king size bed big enough for the crest of the river
My brick laying lover

No matter how much distance we put between
Can't guarantee we wouldn't touch our feet
Wouldn't touch our feet in our sleep
Blue eyes steal me
