never love
I feel your presence in every place
I feel safe in your warm embrace
But how can I explain the terrible secret I hold so close
Love is something I’ve never known
I can’t tell you I love you
Because that untrue
I can’t tell you I need you
I feel for you something I’ve never felt
When your around I just want to be held
I want you to keep me close
But in the back of my mind the truth is screaming
He loves someone
And she isn’t you
You can’t love
You don’t know how to
He's just being nice
He doesn’t really care
But still I drown in the ocean that is your eyes
The gentle waves sweeping over my skin
Aggressive currents pulling me in
Kind dolphins and turtles swim with me
Sharks circle pulling me deep
But that doesn’t matter
I can’t love you
And you can’t love me
But still the quick sand that is your smile
It pulls me in and I can’t move
The harder I try
The less I succeed
You could never love a girl like me
I’m far below average
I’ve got nothing special
But still when you hold me I can’t help but wonder
Is there some universe where it is you and me
Where she isn’t in the picture
Is there a universe that I knew how to love you
Where I could hold you in my arms as you do me
Where we could live happily
But the girl like me doesn’t get the happy ending
She ends up the maid
Or stuck with the dragon
So me
I’ll just have to watch from afar
As you sit with her and she wins your heart
