How do I tell you I miss you?
When in reality, I really don't.
How do I say that I will stay?
When deep down, I know I won't.
It all started with that one night,
I snuck through your bedroom window.
My only intention was to steal a kiss,
But instead you stole my breath with hello.
I never intended on you falling for me,
Because I don't stick around for too long.
You clung right on as soon as I left,
Any chance of escape I had is now gone.
And I don't wanna break your heart,
I don't wanna see you crash and burn.
I've never been good with the words I try to speak,
And I can't promise I'll stay when this love takes a wrong turn...
How do I tell you I miss you?
When in reality, I really don't.
How do I say that I will stay?
When deep down, I know I won't.
How do I hold you like I do?
When actually, I just want permanent space.
How do I show I love you?
When honestly, I don't belong in your place...
I never wanted this, I think you already know,
Yet, somehow I got pulled into this square.
I was doing great on my own, what I'm used too,
Now it's like you're always there.
It's not a bad thing, not at all,
I like having you around, you're my bliss.
But sometimes I think about how this started,
And why this love feels all amiss.
You're from one part of the world,
I come from the other.
So how can we be sure,
That you and I can be together?
How do I tell you I miss you?
When in reality, I really don't.
How do I say that I will stay?
When deep down, I know I won't.
How do I hold you like I do?
When actually, I just want permanent space.
How do I show I love you?
When honestly, I don't belong in your place...
What's gonna happen?
Where's this gonna go?
Don't wanna lead you on,
I'm not in this just for the show.
One kiss was all I wanted,
But love is what I got.
It's too late to escape,
I've already been caught...
How do I tell you I miss you?
When in reality, I really don't.
How do I say that I will stay?
When deep down, I know I won't.
How do I hold you like I do?
When actually, I just want permanent space.
How do I show I love you?
When honestly, I don't belong in your place...
