VERSE 1

I know that you still think of me
The way that you want me to be
Oh, how I wish that you could see
The way I see you in my heart
I wish that we could just stay friends
Or that it were you who intends
This, but no matter how it ends
I’ve got to speak or fall apart
And somehow you misunderstand
When I reach out to hold your hand
How could you miss my breathing and
The quickening of my heart rate
I try to tell you with my eyes
And somehow, it is no surprise
To find you’ll never realize
Unless I give it to you straight

CHORUS

This feeling’s deeper than my skin
I don’t think I can hold it in
I’m not some priest or paladin
Whose vows can bind them, in a sense
Oh, there’s a fire down below
But how much deeper can you go
It’s not like anything you know
Wish I could leave you your innocence

VERSE 2

I can’t explain the way I feel
Even to me, it’s so unreal
The power that you have to steal
My breath away with just a word
I dream each moment of your kiss
A fragile hope for tenderness
Oh, just to hear your voice is bliss
A sweeter sound was never heard
I feel the sand that’s running through
My fingers when I look at you
And see you smile like you do
And my heart melts the way it does
I’m placing in you all my trust
Forced forward by both love and lust
Before they grind me into dust
And I guess that it’s just because

CHORUS

BRIDGE

I am dying
Hear my crying
Please be with me
Please, just kiss me
Listen to me
Don’t look through me
Touch me, just once
Close the distance
