i know feelings aren't easy
and it can be hard to show
but if you could find it in yourself
i'd wrap you up tight and never let you go
your words knocked the breath right out of me
you spoke with a disdain that would be hard to fake
but believe i only hid your keys
so you wouldn't drive your car into the lake
sometimes, we all get low
we all live with a pain we don't think anyone else will ever know
but i need you to try
i need you to work on yourself like a mountain on high
there's not enough treasure buried in the diamond sea
that could ever equate to what you mean to me
yeah, i miss your smile
you don't seem to laugh anymore
you smother the spark i thought we'd set
still, all i can seem to say is "what'd you do that for?"
