    Hi, I really liked this maybe you should go into singing and record it for me haha joking aside great rhythm and beat. Everything flowed so smoothly and fitted like a glove. Love can be a wonderful thing when it's returned and done in the right way.

    You deserve better than I was ever giving
    I'm sorry my care was oft too threadbare to give
    I could sit here reviewing while you go through living
    Except that I see all I need to be to live
    ^^
    A beautiful start and honest. You didn't give enough but now feel guilty and lost without this person in your live so as they go on living, you go on wanting them.

    Should I forget all the things I can see
    Blinding myself to what we could be
    Removing the charm from reality
    And bind my hands with what's safe and easy
    'Cause I can't make the time that's right come now
    We need more growth than what that would endow
    But I can lift myself up and avow
    To be the best for you that you'll allow
    ^^
    I love this part especially the last 3 lines because you now want to give your all to this person and even though you can't do it now you want to be given the chance to makes amends and be the best part of her if/when allowed.

    Now I see that waiting
    Isn't conducive to living life
    In the plea I'm stating
    My patience and preference are rife
    You will always be in my heart
    Though we may not get another start
    ^^
    A sweet part of the song because you've been waiting and it doesn't help which is totally relatable because it doesn't make the feeling of wanting this person badly to go. We probably have all done this, waited around for someone that's taken our hearts.

    We could all win in the way I've been dreaming
    There's days I recall that seem to rival a dream
    Though what you reflect may seem imperfect teaming
    Except if you see we forgot to be a team
    ^
    Love the imperfect team part because though you may be you still make a good team though forgotten how to make that great team.

    Should I give up on giving in to grace
    Finding fables formed with a fresh face
    Staying tempted by the flowers and the fruits
    So beautiful for trees that have no roots
    When I don't want to meet somebody new
    I'm tired of comparing them to you
    Acting as though their vagary will fade
    With the fantasy I need un-swayed
    ^^
    When you love someone so much you will always compare then to other people. We shouldn't but we do unfortunately. It's like when we get hurt by someone it stays in your mind making it harder to trust the next person you let into your life. The metaphors of flowers and fruit and the trees having no roots is a beautiful one. Great imagery.

    Now I see that waiting
    Isn't taking what life will allow
    You'll agree that dating
    Isn't what we need to do right now
    I still see possibility
    But I can't base life on one maybe
    ^^
    If one or both people aren't ready to date then it makes it harder. There seems to be abit of a trust issue from both parties but how are we meant to know if we don't try.
    Hope it worked out.

    All in all, really enjoyable lyrics.
