And I look at you The way you look at her And I sit here And I think too deeply I think about what We could be And what it would be like To hold your hand And I think about How your arms Hang loosely around her hips When you're tired And I picture myself Holding you tight After a long night After everything hit the fan I want to know what It's like to feel Your lips against my forehead And on my neck But what hurts the most Is I was so close And pushed her into you So you wouldn't fall So you wouldn't fall into me Because that would be Like breaking a dam During a flood So I will watch you love her And I will watch your light Shine through her And think just for a little while longer.

Love isn't all it's cracked up to be
And I look at you The way you look at her And I sit here And I think too deeply I think about what We could be And what it would be like To hold your hand And I think about How your arms Hang loosely around her hips When you're tired And I picture myself Holding you tight After a long night After everything hit the fan I want to know what It's like to feel Your lips against my forehead And on my neck But what hurts the most Is I was so close And pushed her into you So you wouldn't fall So you wouldn't fall into me Because that would be Like breaking a dam During a flood So I will watch you love her And I will watch your light Shine through her And think just for a little while longer.
