I've thought about you
every moment I've been awake
since i first saw you.
from when my eyes open for daylight
'till i pass out at night
it's true.
and it's been so long that I'm on withdraw
from you.
my hands are shaking,
my heartbeat's skipping,
and my breathing's uneasy.
everything i see,
everything i do
reminds me of you,
it's true.
I'm actually sorry our paths ever crossed,
because of my heart,
and my head,
and i feel so hot,
even when the temperature drops,
it's true.
then your song comes on
and i just pause.
i can't think,
it's not right,
all i can do i say
"god...i need you"
but i know you have someone else
and i don't belong,
i wish i never got involved.
I'm sorry, it's true
but it's funny because with every
thing I've been through...
you're my biggest concern...
because you're more than beautiful,
you're you
it's true
