about
"Opaque Love" is a platonic love song I wrote as an ode to a friend who was struggling with singleness and I was confessing my love for them saying, "shouldn't my love be enough?" I think sharing affection and intimacy isn't just for lovers or sexual partners.
lyrics
hey there friend
i see you hiding
and you should know
i feel your heart is hurting
hey there friend
i see you aching
and you should know
i feel your heart is yearning
i understand how it feels
when your devotion’s not enough
when rejection seems more of a friend
than the people that you long for
La da da da dai la
La da da da dai la
hey there friend
i see you hiding
and you should know
i feel your heart is hurting
hey there friend
i see you aching
and you should know
i feel your heart is yearning
i understand how it feels
when your devotion’s not enough
when rejection seems more of a friend
than the people that you long for
La da da da dai la
La da da da dai la
hey there friend
i see you giving
and you should know
i feel your heart is trying
hey there friend
i see you waiting
and you should know
i feel your heart is hoping
i understand how it feels
when your devotion’s not enough
when rejection seems more of a friend
than the people that you long for
La da da da dai la
La da da da dai la
i hope your heart is filled
with unceasing adoration
a pure form of affection
that conquers your denial
i hope your heart is filled
with unceasing adoration
a pure form of affection
that conquers your denial
can that be the remedy
for this opaque kind of love
hey there friend
i see you shining
and you should know
i feel your heart's unchanging
