To Lovers, Shackled by Blindness


Because I love you, you can't go away

Because I need you, I'll always ask you to stay

She conceils her cell phone under

A thick wooden desk like a mask; she's falling behind

But if she doesn't keep him in mind...

There are some issues more pressing than class

He doesn't hit her, he doesn't shout

But little does she know, she's already lost her way out

Because I love you I need to know where you are

Because I need you I love to control your heart

Because I love you we can have a new start

Because I need you we can. Never. Be Apart.
