Lyrics
Sitting here in the pet friendly complex
With a complex
I can’t shake my feelings for you
Nah
A study of perfection
Mural
Displayed in my head
Pastels on my brain cells
Colors kept blazing
By the vision
Of your smile
I got a lifetime pass
To this exclusive exhibition
The venue
Remains…
Unchanged, unchanged, unchanged
Guess I’m a proud pet parent
Don’t look like one
But a big black cat is my baby son
That big black cat will soon be gone
When the fading lunar
Turns to solar
At the crack of dawn
Left thinkin’
Of the hugs I remember
There are only two
The elusive owner
Of those arms
The masterpiece in my mind
Will forever, remain unchanged
Oh unchanged, unchanged, unchanged, yeah
Sleep deprived, the moon watching
The faraway beams
Dance off my mother’s grave
What she taught me to look for
I found in one place
Caught me off guard and unexpected
The woman with it all
My enchantress
Remains…
Unchanged, unchanged, unchanged
Guess I’m a proud pet parent
Don’t look like one
But a big black cat is my baby son
That big black cat will soon be gone
When the fading lunar
Turns to solar
At the crack of dawn
Left thinkin’
Of the hugs I remember
There are only two
The elusive owner
Of those arms
The masterpiece in my mind
Will forever, remain unchanged
Oh unchanged, unchanged, unchanged, yeah
Imaginary question from
A match
Life’s app of fate
Swiped left
And said would never be
Will you find someone in Heaven who you’ll love more than me?
Only if there is you times two
I’d answer
Hopin’ everyday
This won’t be the last chapter
In my living truth which
Remains…
Unchanged, unchanged, unchanged
Guess I’m a proud pet parent
Don’t look like one
But a big black cat is my baby son
That big black cat will soon be gone
When the fading lunar
Turns to solar
At the crack of dawn
Left thinkin’
Of the hugs I remember
There are only two
The elusive owner
Of those arms
The masterpiece in my mind
Will forever, remain unchanged
Oh unchanged, unchanged, unchanged, yeah
Oh unchanged, unchanged, unchanged
Sitting here in the pet friendly complex
With a complex
I can’t shake my feelings for you
