What would you say if
I asked you for
another chance?

It wouldn't be
my second, maybe
third, or fourth

and I have no guarantee
I won't blow it
this time.

What would you say if
I asked you to
choose me
once more

even though I can't
promise I'll always
choose you?

What would you say if
I told you
I don't love you, but
lately I've been thinking
I could?

Would it be enough for you
if I asked you
to wait for me?

Because you have made me
happier
and a little less
heavy

and because your love
might save me, and
I'm tired of drowning?

I might run out on you
again, I get scared
easily and I never
seem to know what
I want, but I think
it's you, this time,

and I know this doesn't
sound altogether
promising, but at least
it's honest, so tell me.

What would you say?
