Is the reason that I'm driven
Straight to tears
Waiting here for you
Wanting to tell you
How I get me ends and my beginnings mixed up too
Just the way you do
I thought if I told you
You might want to stay for just another day or two…
We have begun to change
Into the worst kind of people
So unkind
Oh apologies, no apologies
This apology doesn't describe
The way it feels to feel for you…
Waiting here for you
Wanting to tell you
How I find myself slowly disappearing too
Just the way you do
I thought if I told you
You might want to help me to remain with you…
