Why

Do you want me to say
You're the best thing since sliced bread?
You know you are

Do you want me to tell you
That I'm not good enough for you?
I already know that

Do you want me to say that
I could have loved you one hundred times over
And meant it every time?

Do you know what your rejection would feel like?
I could never get up and face the world again
Because I know how real and true your love is

Do you want me to tell you
That a love like yours is what I dreamed about as a girl
And gave up on in this world?

Do you want me to feel love for you?
I do and I am falling and I wish I wasn't
I don't know what's happening any more

Do you think I'm a heartless, cold person?
I never knew you were free, I didn't
This is a shock to me

Do you want me to tell you
That I don't dream about the love of which you speak?
I would be a liar

Do you want me to tell you that there are things
So many things about me that you don't know - still
That I have to tell you?

And if I fall in love with you before I do
I know what's going to happen
You're going to break my heart

And don't think you can't
You just did


happy new year
