But oh -

You're not ready -
Why aren't you ready?
You're still waiting just to see.
I guess I know that
kind of feeling, but oh
how I wish you wanted me.

You want something -
but you want nothing.
You can't tell me what you mean.
I guess I know that
you are searching, but oh
I'm confused by what I see.

You think it's funny -
but I'm not laughing.
I like to watch but it's not the same.
I guess I know that
it's a joke, but oh
can't you share it with me?

Are there secrets
you don't tell me?
Are there things you hide from me?
I guess I know that
it's the way it goes, but oh
where does that leave me?

I want all that
you can offer.
I want more than you've given me.
I guess I know that
you might say no, but oh...

oh...

no.
