Yours and Yours Alone

I look farther than I see
Seeing things that may or may not be
Only knowing truly what is in front of me
And there's nothing in this room, but empty space
No thoughts, no words, no world...
I'm so aware of it, but it doesn't seem real
Touch the fingers of my hands, and it's me
I believe...I always have believed, and I always will
I see a fading shooting star, and I make a wish
Then, there they go again, the lights are changing
Red to green, red to green
Here we go, it's getting the better of me, again
Sometimes, when you and I collide, I just lose control
Oh, I should be much too smart for this
But, I open my mouth, and all the things you mean to me
Come tumbling out
As I speak, though, I wonder, will you stay?
Yet, there's no way to be sure
Because everything's turned inside out
And all logic has been torn apart...
I should be much to smart for this
I should've already learned this lesson
But, I fall into this ocean of you
Even though I know you'll let me down, eventually
Still...until then...stay
If you do, I'll tell you why I love you
'Cause I know that you've been dying to ask me
You just haven't had the nerve 'cause you're afraid
You're afraid that I've change my mind
But, I think that you should know by now
That I'll never change my mind
That my heart is yours and yours alone
Forever
