If It is Love

If It Is Love
First blush walks on the south side
I could spend Monday justifying every lie that you told me
Cruel September floods on the state line
And I wonder, can you tell that I think of it now?
Oh, the lonely nights
I'd risk losing my focus
Just to see you when the dawn breaks
And the sky would paint us orange
And I miss you with the lights down low at 5 AM
If it is love, it doesn't matter in the end
Iris lining your window
Matching hardwood floors
And the pink stained glass in the living room
'Cause I dwell on the ways that you've hurt me
It's something I'm still working through
Are you thinking about it like I used to?
Oh, the lonely nights
I'd risk losing my focus
Just to see you when the dawn breaks
And the sky would paint us orange
And I miss you with the lights down low at 5 AM
If it is love, it doesn't matter in the end
Oh, and I get emotional on my best friend's farm
When I couldn't call you
So I break my heart in a beat-up car
While she's in your dorm room
I'm in a field of cornflowers
Screaming: What's the point if we always knew?
Hmm
Oh, the lonely nights
I'd risk losing my focus
Just to see you when the dawn breaks
And the sky would paint us orange
And I miss you with the lights down low at 5 AM
If it is love, it doesn't matter in the end
If it is love, it doesn't matter.
