Can't Tell You
I see you gazing away from my eyes
Trying to catch her movements
I know when this happens that you're lost
You're living in dreams of you and her together.
She's everything I'm not
Friendly and socially adept, she has grace
I am sharper and wilder than she has ever been
I am unaware of what's right or wrong, until you teach me.
We have electricity but you refuse to see
The sparks flying between us go unnoticed
I feel them and weep with despair in my soul.
I didn't know what a heart was until I met you
Pain was a foreign word that I inflicted and never received
But I can never tell you how you fill my heart.
I would kill to make you happy
But you're happiest with her
So I wait silently, words failing like never before
Hoping and alternately losing hope
When our song plays I reach out and wish for our future.
Please come home to me.
