Diggin’ on you


You're keeping me up at night;
I need to turn out the light.  
I need to put you out of my mind;
I need to find a reason why.  


Why it would never work;
Why we could never connect.  
Why I keep thinking about your words;
I need a reason to forget.  


Was it just a word or was it said with deeper meaning?  
Was it misremembered or misheard?  
Whatever the truth, it is keeping me from sleeping…
All I want to do is dream about you,
But my thoughts keep me awake.  Summer is in bloom,
I am under a blue moon, left confused, by no truth;  
Yet I am diggin’ on you.  


Been void so long, no names or faces to recall;
Then you came along and rocked my comfortable little world.  
You leave me wondering what is she thinking?  
Is she really diggin’ on me?  
Ok Babe, let's talk this straight,
I need an answer; are we just gonna be mates?  
Or are we going to make a connection that lasts?  
Will you join me and swear a love pact?


If I arrive before your eyes this summertime,
What will I find if I ask you to be mine?  
Great minds?  Or fantastical lies?  
A fantasy of what could be; tell me please,
Are you diggin’ on me?  


You have ignited a passion I had given up on
And the only things holding me back are your choices in songs,
Or your marital status.
Are you single, or does none of this even matter!?
As there will never be a chance to grow a tree for us.  


I have a seed inside my head, that wants to get out,
But I must simply forget,
Because you are wrong for me; the pessimist is so sure.  
Riddle me this; will I ever be yours?  


A true liar speaks of rejection.
An honesty line is I want your affection.  
If one plus one equals our future,
Then which thought must I utter?  
What gift must I bestow?  
Which key must I hold?
To get my message through to ya?
