A Work
Paper notes, passed over time
words you wrote just for me
puts smiles on my face
and I hide them from you
taking your time
you walk in front of me
I watch your steps
there protecting me
and if I told you I loved you
would you still love me
if I let myself feel
the way you feel
would you still feel the same.
hands so close they could touch
make my gards go up.
I pull and you push
but if things were differently
would you stop liking the chase
feelings wrapped in confusing
it's easy to say it will all stay the same.
But if I told you I loved you
would you still love me
if I let myself feel
the way you feel
would you still feel the same.
I can't help but have these feelings
that one day you'll leave
because I don't know what it is
that you see in me.
So when I tell you I love you
I need you to love me
and when I let myself feel
what you feel for me.
I need those feelings to stay the same.

Misunderstanding
It hadn't even been a year when I realized you were something new.
When I knew there was something there besides those normal feelings.
Something I never let myself feel
I have my walls and for good reasons
And I let them down that holiday season.
And I let them crumble so easily
The fall’s so much harder when there’s something to lose.
The idea of the person I made him out to be
The person I see he turned out to be
I brace for the ground
Ready to run the second I land
Now it would seem we're strangers
pretend you’re not in the same room
but sneak glances when you're not looking
You Whisper I love you in my ear
with the understanding of friends.
I told you secrets
secrets intended for you
then you made it a show
Had to give those walls a reason to build back up
I try and remind myself that there was something
something I saw
something that was real
I try and remind myself that there was something
something I loved
something I wanted
But I don't see those things anymore
The fall’s so much harder when there’s something to lose.
The idea of the person I made him out to be
The person I see he turned out to be
I brace for the ground
Ready to run the second I land
Now it would seem we're strangers
pretend you're not in the same room
but sneak glances when you're not looking
Whisper I love you in my ear
with the understanding of friends.
The fall was so much harder when I lost you.
The idea of the person I made you out to be
was different from the person you turned out to be
No ground to brace for this time
Now it would seem we’re strangers
No need to pretend.
We’re not in the same room
And I only glance at memories Memories of the stranger I feel in love with
