U Want Me 2

You walk on by

clueless and so high,

following your aimless

path away from us.

You're so far away

and what can I say,

cause I can't be the one

you wanted me to be.

So tell me

how do you feel,

it's so confusing.

If you let it all go

it'll fall apart.

Do you want me to stay

and say 'I still want to'?

You want me too, don't you?

So what are we saying?

Our Eden's a failure,

a made-up story

to fit a picture-perfect world;

the one with 'I do'

and 'I love you'

and 'we are made for each other'.

Is forever over now?

I hope there's forgiveness

in the distance between us.

Can we make what lies ahead of us

a better place to be?
