The truth about your beauty(unrequited)
Is it because I stopped sending you flowers
That you deny it when I say you are beautiful?
I only stopped because I worry they hurt you
When they come from me, somehow.
When I say I want you near me
You claim that I am just horny...
If I wanted to get with just anybody
I'd try to get with just anybody
And to be honest,
I mostly just want to be in your arms,
Whispering soft words,
Embraced in your charms...
You say that I just love what I can't have,
But I didn't let myself fall
Until I thought I could have you all
To myself, so I took the chance.
I wanted to make your heart dance
The way you make my heart dance.
But maybe I missed my chance and it was too late.
But just in case,I still ask you on the occasional date
Hoping I'm not just making you hate
The same moments together that I cherish so dear,
And the fact that I long to hold you near.
Sometimes I wish that I was him,
So that in those moments that I make you grin
It would feel a little more welcome
I worry that when you deny your beauty
That you actually don't believe
Or that you want me to pretend I don't see
Because that would be easier for you somehow.
But I just... I refuse to lie about that right now
That you deny it when I say you are beautiful?
I only stopped because I worry they hurt you
When they come from me, somehow.
When I say I want you near me
You claim that I am just horny...
If I wanted to get with just anybody
I'd try to get with just anybody
And to be honest,
I mostly just want to be in your arms,
Whispering soft words,
Embraced in your charms...
You say that I just love what I can't have,
But I didn't let myself fall
Until I thought I could have you all
