Your ship, Is not mine to sail, I am only damaged goods, And you're not.
I am unworthy, To aboard your journey. So sail without me, Following traces to your star. Guided by the wind in your heart. On forth and find her sea, Away from me.
In the peaceful hours of the morning The sun helps provide clarity to myself Almost as if I'm missing the warnings Little signs that reflect my health
I think my mind lacks the inspiration to write More often than not I try too hard To turn on that create light It still fails to shine staying on guard
Though the writing is the easy part conveying what's really important is not I thought the trick was to speak from the heart Yet doing so makes my bran rot
Doing so turns into a million different ways Different ways of saying I love you I write as if you never went away Perhaps one day my heart will have a clue
She gives me a look likes it’s all okay As to her it is just another day She says we can still keep on being friends As if these feelings would just end
Is it selfish to think I could not My heart feels as if it’s been tired into a knot Yet she smiles like she still cares But to me it just doesn't feel fair
For I love her, but she must love another And so, she looks at me as just a brother Now I have no choice but to accept Accept learning to live with reject
When she does find the one she wants I hope that I can be a little more nonchalant In my head it’s hard to compile That at one point I was the one that made her smile
How hard is it to wait I say this in my head While avoiding feelings that I dread For I am an anchor that has begun to sink
If I only knew I was falling Or that I would be blinded Perhaps we were misguided Yet here I am, on the phone still calling
If only you fell for me as I, did you Then the next verse would be an easier write And the world would still be bright What more is there to really do?
Though not spoken, my eyes confess my love There's not a prettier sight to me There's no other place I long to be But with you in the morning watching the doves
If I can't love as I should I'll choose to love you as a friend That's what I tell myself, as if I could But that's as foolish as the wind
To stand so close to the flames The match was struck long ago I knew I would never be the same Maybe that's something you didn't know
Or perhaps you expected a change A moment may arise that sparks new wonder One that needs no guidance and has no range Could it just be a fool’s blunder?
The day will come when you are ready I hope that you'll still remember me And that it’s me that causes your heat to beat unsteady So, we can discover what true love should be
