Why I Love Lyrics by Shy Girls

Salt

2016

[Verse 1]
I feel it
When you turn away
When the pulse starts to flatline
That's when I'll remember
I feel it, I feel it when I don't want to
And I can't find another way to sleep at night
[Chorus]
That's why I love
That's why I love
That's why I love
That's why I love
[Verse 2]
You are not me
You are not part of my flesh
But I am also not myself most of the time anyway
And I wish well
I always try to wish well
Oh, but I'd rather be, I'd rather be foolish
Than on my own
[Chorus]
That's why I love
That's why I love
That's why I love
That's why I love
[Bridge]
[A forest?] on fire and the sinks are dry
[A forest?] on fire and the sinks are dry
I need an illusion just so I can sleep
I need an illusion just so I can sleep
I need an illusion
[Chorus]
That's why I love
That's why I love
That's why I love
That's why I love, oh
That's why I love
That's why I love
