Let Me Stay

I lay here wide awake in my bed,
with thoughts of you running through my head.

I wonder who you're thinking of,
but I know it's me you could never love.

I know you so well I can't believe it.
I wish we were the perfect fit.

They say opposites attract,
but there is something that I lack.

I know you will never want me,
and I need to just let this be.

These feelings are taking over my heart,
and I hope we do not begin to part.

I hope these feelings do not show,
because I never want you to go.

You say you will never leave
as I wear my heart on my sleeve.

I want you and nothing more.
I should stop because my heart is tore.

I'd rather have you as my best friend,
because then our relationship will never end.

Until you push me away,
but please let me stay.
