I woke up today thinking i'd be smart
but then you came around
words I meant to say got lost
silence has a deafining sound
I know I could never give you what it is you want
and though i know I should stay away for some reason I dont
I dont
Because you bring
rain, to wash away the hurt for a little while
wind, to blow away my fears and make me smile
earth, to help me see my feet are planted firm
fire, destroying me when you say those three words
and I wish that you could see the truth
that I'll never say I love you too
Maybe I'm just leading you on
but I've told you again and again
friendship is all I really want
you can't seem to get it in your head
don't you know I could never give you what it is you want
and you know I should stay away but all you say is don't
please don't
can't you see you bring
rain, to wash away the hurt for a little while
wind, to blow away my fears and make me smile
earth, to help me see my feet are planted firm
fire, destroying me when you say those three words
and I wish that you could see the truth
that I'll never say I love you too
please don't ask me
please don't love me
