Only when I think about it Does my stomach drop Along with my heart Which ends up on the ground Because I can remember the sound Of your voice. Only when I think about it Do my hands begin to shake And I have to will them to be still Because you were the one who held them still When I couldn't do it on my own Like right now. Only when I think about it Do the tears start to fall While sitting in the library In the middle of classes Trying to stifle the cries Like right now. Only when I think about it Do I see you and what we were Only then does my heart sink My hands shake And the tears fall Only when I think about it Which happens to be all the time.

Only When I Think About It
Only when I think about it Does my stomach drop Along with my heart Which ends up on the ground Because I can remember the sound Of your voice. Only when I think about it Do my hands begin to shake And I have to will them to be still Because you were the one who held them still When I couldn't do it on my own Like right now. Only when I think about it Do the tears start to fall While sitting in the library In the middle of classes Trying to stifle the cries Like right now. Only when I think about it Do I see you and what we were Only then does my heart sink My hands shake And the tears fall Only when I think about it Which happens to be all the time.
