#100possiblesongs 14: Molecular Love Song

I have to say I didn’t understand

Those hexagon and liney diagrams

But you explain them

And even though I sometimes get confused

I think it’s cool

The way that you love molecules.

Your special interests

Make you special and interesting to me.

I love the way you try to make me see

The fascination.

The logic and the perfect chemistry.

But that’s something that I already see

In you and me.

Before I met you

Brain chemicals were something that I thought

I knew about with no need to be taught

But serotonin

And dopamine, they were just pretty names

A sort of game

And now I almost feel ashamed

Your special interests

Make you special and interesting to me.

I love the way you try to make me see

The fascination.

The logic and the perfect chemistry.

But that’s something that I already see

In you and me.

It isn’t like I didn’t know already that our brains

Produce these certain chemicals in times of pleasure or of pain

But I didn’t understand until I looked into your eyes

That neurons and receptors were a thing that I could visualise.

You grab a notepad

And sketch the way our happiness is made

Your brightness leaves me in the shade

But you explain it

And slowly I am learning how to see

Our chemistry

The bonding between you and me.

Your special interests

Make you special and interesting to me.

I love the way you try to make me see

The fascination.

The logic and the perfect chemistry.

But that’s something that I already see

In you and me.

It isn’t like I didn’t know already that our brains

Produce these certain chemicals in times of pleasure or of pain

But I didn’t understand until I looked into your eyes

That neurons and receptors were a thing that I could visualise.
