Because I Love You
is it possible that you're the reason why i can't sleep at night?
like everything that i've been feeling is because i never got over you?
it hurts to think that, but it's the truest thing i can think
i want to tell you all of it; the good, bad, embarassing
i don't care, because i want to know all of you, and for you to know all of me
i want to be your everything; you're already mine
but how can i possibly tell you without ruining everything?
put simply; i can't, so now i just dream of being with you
and put that thought the furthest from my mind as possible when i'm around you
i only break down my thoughts and feelings behind closed doors
because then you can't possibly find out; perfect
but what do i do when i can't find another thing to say when you ask why i'm upset?
what do i do when it's on the tip of my tongue,
and those three words could automatically be the end of us,
of at least whatever you would call what we have
what do i say when i can't find the words to make small talk?
when all i want to say is i love you
and tell you that you've been missing it for months, that you've never actually known me
what i think about, what i feel, who i love
he was never right for me; you obviously knew that, you made comments all the time
all i want is for you to love me like i love you, like i have since august
since the day i met you, the day i fell helplessly in love, unable to think about anyone else,
to feel this way for anyone else, no one compares; you've always been there
