I can’t seem to explain
Exactly what it all means
Some distinct connection
That keeps me coming back to you
I realize it will never be
However I need to somehow tell you
Of what’s locked deep inside
I can’t help but notice
Everything we have in common
There’s so much there
That it just seems unreal
Knowing it means nothing
Should make me turn away
But yet I can’t bring myself
To conclude that nothing’s there
You’ve helped me with so much
Making me feel better about myself
When I barely had any hope left
You told me I was pretty
When I thought I looked like shit
You informed me that things would be “okayâ€
When I told you why I was pissed
When I felt childish and small
Your words of encouragement rang through
I love talking to you
Because I know you listen
Although I’m not sure why
I also believe you care
I have a boyfriend right now
But I can’t seem to talk to him
In the same respect I can to you
I can’t explain exactly why
‘Though I believe the answer lies
Deep within my heart
Where true love lies
Where I know I will be heard
And actually understood
I don’t believe he would understand
In the same respect I feel you would
For I can’t feel the same connection
With him as with you
You make me happy
And fill me with laughter
When all he does
Is try to kiss everything away
I need someone to listen
And to understand me
All of which I feel you do
I needed you let you know
Exactly what you mean to me
Although I’m afraid of what you’ll say.
