SUMMER NOSTALGIA ( sentence starters from the debut studio album by emily james )
"Do you remember it the way I do? And does it have a hold on you?"
"In my mind it's glorified, you and I, together."
"What if we don't overthink it?"
"You know it's already different."
"If you make me bleed, that's alright, honey, I'll live."
"Let's make believe we'll ever be the same again."
"I don't wanna be wondering what could have been."
"I'm on your lips, just let me in."
"I think there's a chance this is real."
"Leave you now, I just can't."
"Isn't it funny how none of my friends ever liked you?"
"Guess that I wanted you to prove them wrong."
"I'm always rooting for the underdog."
"Guess that I knew that, that I was never number one."
"When it's good, yeah, it's good."
"I'm alright when you do what you should."
"I'm holding on to what could be, but would it be better?"
"When it's hell, yeah, it's hell."
"I should really go and save myself."
"You got me baited, holding me out on your string."
"I think I'm in love with you, probably, and you don't have a clue."
"I've been talking about you to everyone."
"You got me running laps in my head."
"I wanna be on your mind all of the time."
"It's bending my heart a little too far now."
"You touch me, I'm aching."
"Tell me you want me now."
"You think it feels special but you still need the proof."
"Please don't give me eyes if you're planning to kiss her."
"I can't go back, I can't be your friend."
"We went together like bare legs and leather, always a little too dependent on the weather."
But we were young and sort of dumb."
"It was fun and sort of love."
"I don't know how not to want you."
"You're in me like a drunk-night tattoo."
"Every dress I own is saturated with your fucking hands around my waist."
"You're the foundation, you built the blueprint."
"I wanna feel like you're here for a second."
"I can't escape it, don't know if I want to."
"If I need to quit you, I'll need to quit drinking."
"That's the truth, but I can't face it."
"Part of me still thinks that you're amazing."
"I still want you, it's complicated."
"My mind is moving on, my heart's still waiting."
"It's not good news, I still love you."
"I still want you, and God, I hate it."
"Even at your worst you were my greatest."
"We're livin' shamelessly and that's how it's supposed to be."
"Nothing can heal you like a bender."
"The water isn't hot enough, I want it to hurt."
"Scared if I talk about it I fall a little too far down."
"I want someone to melt against."
"You look like a pretty place for me to hide."
"I think I could outrun it, I mean I've trained enough to try."
"I see you and I feel like a kid again."
"Honestly all we need is a little re-framing."
"Don't you think that means something?"
"It's all gold when you're holding me."
"Don't make any plans, I wanna just lay here."
"I'm at home when you're holding me."
"If I stay, you'll become my final destination."
"If I go, you'll always have a string around my finger."
"Either way something ends, but I'm not ready yet."
"Some love is worth sunburn."
"We could outrun time and go the distance."
"It wouldn't make any difference what you say."
"The sun will be setting any minute now."
"It doesn't get better than this."
