I feel your eyes on me when I sleep in your arms
I know you watch me breath in and sigh out,
I can almost see your brain send out the alarms
I can sense the feelings swirling in your chest, I know what your thoughts are about.
And while they may scare you, they terrify me
Because I have been here before
Right here, tangled, and glowing from the passion I can still see
Then with the setting of one sun, feeling abandoned, and resentful, with nothing left to adore.
You frighten me because my life has been tailor made for one
There isn't much room on my right side
And as I look into my future I feel that familiar urge to run
But just like the shore I can't escape the tide.
You caught up to me, it only took some time.
