I Want...

Open the window,
And steal the sky,
Give me the answers,
And tell me why.

Hold out your arms,
And hold me close,
If you don't like me,
Tell me so,
Gently.
It's people like me that you accidentally lose.

If I upset you,
Close your eyes,
As I say "Forgive me"
Inside your head,
You said "Goodbye,"
Inside of mine.

I want to wake up,
And go back,
To a window with a view,
That shows me what is wrong with you.

I want to find your flaws so that I can fix them,
I want to find your tears so I can dry them,
Though you never let them flow,
I know that they are there.

I want to cover your shame,
With my hair,
So that no one can see it,
Shield you whatever way I can,
So that you never hurt again.

If I could love you,
The way you need,
Well then I would,
Let that be understood.

I would never leave you there,
Angry and cold,
I don't forget my loved ones,
Even when they get old.

Open the window,
And steal the sky,
Give me the answers,
And tell me why.

Why do I cry when I know,
That my pain is nothing?
Why do I love what I cannot have,
Why do I stand at this window,
And look at the sky,
Wishing you'd steal me a piece,
Of the cloudy blue,
Wishing that I could one day be fearless,
Hoping one day I'll be the girl,
Who loves you.
