Why cant I get you off my mind? Is it cuz maybe you're thinking of me too? Or is it just my wishful thinking?
But why are you on my mind instead of being by my side? Sometimes these few miles seem like light years And sometimes these hours feel like decades
But most of these memories are like bleeding a snake bite So painful yet so relieving Because I love thinking about you but I hate missing you
And every time I see you my eyes try and capture your image and infuse it in the back of my mind but I might as well be blind cuz I can't remember what just friends looks like
And sometimes I think of calling you but my heartbeat is as indecisive as my mind beating yes... no... yes... no ... yes.... no And sometimes my heart has a mind of its own , even though that's something you already know
And every time your skin grazes mine my skin tingle With false expectations and hopeless anticipation But mostly its trying to entrap the warmth of your touch But I might as well be numb because I can't remember what love feels like
At time I think of reaching out to touch you but my courage is just like the air in my lungs, sometimes it just escapes me
They say my mind wonders but I know where its going and that's to you
And most days I just want to hear you say my name But every time I hear you my ears are trying to absorb your words But I might as well be deaf because I don't know what honesty sounds like
And sometimes I try and talk to you but my tongue gets tangled like headphones in a pocket And I can't get you off my mind And I'm hoping its cuz you're thinking of me too
But my heart is like a home cuz when you're gone its never whole But that's something you already know
And maybe one day I'll have the sight to see you The air to say I love you The courage to hold you And the blessing to hear you But maybe its my wishful thinking
