Please – I’m uttering it
a thousand times a second;
I’m trying to find the words
and trying to explain

I feel all too deeply; I know,
I wrote about her
like she put the stars in
the ******* sky, I know

How that must have hurt
to read, to see; I
was a fool, she was my
first love and that’s a curse

I’ll carry with me for
centuries; but I do not love her,
do not want her,
not anymore – it’s you

Please believe me, it’s
only you I’m thinking of in
long nights, only
you I wish was here

I am falling, have
been for days ever since
we shared our first
words; I’m falling for you

We could be beautiful;
don’t let this go
without giving it a shot,
I know you feel it

Too – you feel how we
could be so happy
together, so great and
so good; I want you

And only you now; even
if she came running again
I’d walk away and I’d
run to you:

If only I could, if only
I could walk into
your room and kiss those
lips, the way I crave

If only I could hold you;
words make far
more sense in person,
but I swear to you

The thought of losing you
now, angel, it makes
me sick; just on
chance and we could be everything

Please don’t walk away,
I’m not hers, not
anymore and I could
so easily be yours

Just a few more words,
a few more minutes
of trust and I’d be yours
please – please

I’m rummaging for
the right words to say here
and I know you
won’t talk to me tonight

I guess that’s alright;
I hope you wake up,
and under
morning’s fresh light

You can try to understand
I loved her once;
that’s all; once I loved her
but not now, now all

I want is you.
