I know that you believe you can't love somebody
I know that the people that mean the most
to you, love you but don't show the affection
like you want them too

So you believe that you can never love somebody

but the way you loved me was unbelievable
you cared for me like you care for that cup of tea

you showed me how it was to care for somebody
I showed you that the way your collarbones sticked out was perfect
You showed me that my imperfections were perfect  
I  showed you how it feels to be yourself around somebody and feel okay

We both showed each other how it feels to have somebody with you every orbit of the earth
                              but
One thing I didn't show you was that it's okay to admit that you love somebody
