Maps - Benjamin Francis Leftwich

I named a star for you

I named a star after you

But that wasn’t bright enough for you

I climbed a hill for you

I climbed a hill just for you

But you said «That's nothing new, what does that prove?»

I know if I find when you hide in your mind, I’ll get lost in it

I’ll wait for the day when I find a way to make you mine

I put up a building for you

With thirteen floors and a nice view

But that wasn’t good enough for you

So I pushed it down down like you asked

Built it again out of glass

So every star could shine through, darling

And you’d change your mind

Didn’t you?

Oh my darling, you should know

Since the last time you saw me, I have grown

I know if I find when you hide in your mind, I’ll get lost in it

I’ll wait for the day when I find a way to make you mine
