Confession
Don't ask why
You know why
You know why it hurts to be away from you
And why being next to you is my home
You know why I stay up and lose sleep
Just so I can hear your sweet voice on the phone
You know why I am so comfortable around you
Why laughing around you is so easy
You know why I say all those cute things
And why I act so cheesy
Tell me you feel the same way
Lie to me if you must, but don't ruin the charade
I know he doesn't deserve you, I wish him and I could trade
He can have it all, that's fine!
Because it all means nothing if you're not mine
I can see it in your eye's
Hear it in your voice
If you had a second chance you would've made another choice
"But we've been through so much, I don't know life without him."
Imagine where the fish would be stuck if he never learned to swim
"Why have you waited this long? What do you see in me?"
The stars, the moon, the sun, the earth, and the sea
"You know it's funny. I always thought I knew. Where my life would take me. But all of this feels new"
He never gave you butterflies?
"No."
He never cooked you food?
He never told you all the things he loved about you?
He never learned your favorite things?
Or promised you a ring?
"No..."
You deserve better, you know it's true
"Why do you care so much?"
Because I love you.
