I Know I Can Love You Much Better Than This
Holding me all night long,
Cuddling tight, to our song.
You look at me with such desire,
Your passion burns hot as fire.
Been hurt before, I try to feel
That this is different, this is real.
Different emotions swim in my heart,
So much trust just torn apart.
I want to see, I want to believe,
I want to ignore thoughts that deceive.
When you hold me tight and I get lost in a kiss...
I know I can love you... much better than this.
You’re getting half, but deserve my all,
But I can't let go, afraid to fall.
I tell myself, "It's better this way,"
My heart, protected, no pain to pay.
I would be the one to fall
If I let go, and broke the wall.
Your face so sweet and so sincere,
My heart craves to hold you near.
But past mistakes haunt each day,
I tell myself, "It's better this way."
An open heart I lack and miss,
'Cuz I know I can love you much better than this.
When you feel the pain and start to cry,
I sit alone and wonder, "Why?"
Why the tears, can’t you see?
I’m not crying, nope, not me.
Don't be so emotional, it opens doors,
It causes battles, emotional wars.
Sometimes I feel it, when unaware,
Strong sensations, to really care.
When you drop to your knees from misery’s bliss,
I know I can love you... much better than this...
But I tell myself... "It's better this way."
