Every time I have to explain myself
I realize something is not getting through
I can’t always worry about the things I say
Someday you'll know what I said was true

I'd rather be honest while we smile at each other
You seem happy but there is something to be found
One day you'll realize what's happened to your mind
Becoming lovers will happen without a sound

You will always be free
Even if we're together
It doesn't mean I don't love you
Because when I think of you I think of forever

I'll live my life while you do the things you do
All I want is time for us to be me and you

I could sing the blues all night long
Or be humble about having a life at all
I don’t want to bring anybody down
I'll let the leaves do that when they fall

I wonder about my place in your life
I have mine too and I don't need another
Sometimes it’s more than we can be
But without love we pretend not to suffer

You will always be free
Even if we're together
It doesn't mean I don't love you
Because when I think of you I think of forever

I'll live my life while you do the things you do
All I want is time for us to be me and you
