Be a Soldier

from The Drought Is Real by Pine + Palm

lyrics

You know that I want you.
You say that you don’t feel the same
But I know that it’s not true
I can see it by the look on your face
when I touch you there,
baby don’t you dare.
I can feel your flames
and don’t you want to come with me?
We might not be free
Aren’t you tired of feeling this way?
Walking these fine lines
Between you and me
You say it can never happen again
But does it count if it’s in my dreams?

Cause I got it bad for you
and I don’t know what to do
But I know you got it bad for me
and I’m not settling for c’est la vie
This time

You tell me, “be a soldier”
You tell me to be brave, put a mask on my face
But I am getting older
and there’s something in the way we say
we can have both worlds,
you can be my girl.
You’re like “things will never be the same,”
Well all we know is right now.
You say you want your soldier brave?

Well I got it bad for you
and I don’t know what to do
But I know you got it bad for me
and I’m not settling for c’est la vie
This time
