The little things are what you want me to change
The little things that I refuse to let you take away
You tell me I'm perfect so I believed you until now
A mouth full of lies, deception, and now you tell me that you want to make the relationship fade.
Fading from your memory like the pages of our old photo albums
Torn and shattered memories that you helped me make.
You used to caress the top of my hand with the skin of your thumb
Talk to me sweet all night, and we'd sing along to our favorite songs on the long drive home.
You refused to let me get off the phone without saying 'I love you' first.
I loved everything about you but that was just the burning fire of lust
Changes over time, you proved to me that maybe I AM blind.
Maybe I'm blind because of what I refused to see, and instead made up what you were.
Now that we're together again maybe you'll make an effort toward forgetting her.
The little things are what I'm wanting you to change, but that's what makes you..you.
The little things are what make me love you, the little things force me to make you leave.
I'm afraid of losing you but afraid of holding on
I'm afraid that maybe after I hand over my heart, you'll decide to walk out of this home.
I insist to you that this was meant to be, insist that you have to stay
I can't go on in this unknown destiny without you here with me.
I thought I was fine, I thought I moved on
But when you came to talk to me just a few days ago, I figured out that that's what I needed, love.
I need your figure by my side, not in front of me and not behind me
Close to my hand, so you can take it and guide our lives.
We can't be us without being together
There's no trust and for that we will always be apart
Hold on this time and please don't let go.
You have no idea how much I really need you and for you what I'd go through.
To be with you for this day and time would make me richer than all the jewels in the world.
To have you say you love me and mean it with all sincerity would make my heart beat faster than any man ever could.
I'm asking you to do this just this once
Even though I mean it when I admit I love you
Even though you mean it when you leave and say you don't
Lie to me just this one time, and make me lather in the love that's not there.
Lie to me, just to make me happy.
Being with you now, even though it may not be true
Blesses me with all the love that anyone could ever give.
It's the little things you do that make me the happiest person in the world
It's the little things you do that make everything fall apart and make everything torn.
We're like quick fading pictures in the scrapbook of our time.
Even though you hold my hand, I know I'm not touching your heart like you are mine.
We play off to be the couple everyone wishes they could be.
But, we're a song that no one could ever sing.
Only because we're happy when we lie, we're happy when we want to be
But when it comes down to it, it's all a set up, and we'll never be as happy as destiny intended us to be.
Pleeing to the heavens, getting down on my knees.
Even God himself couldn't keep you here with me.
The littlest things prove to me you no longer care
The littlest things prove to me that no matter how much I want it, love has never, is not, and will never be there.
