We Could Never Be

When I look into your eyes I cannot help but to wonder,
Are you the only one here that keeps me from going under?,

If only you didn't smoke, If only you didn't drink,
My love for you inside my heart would never have to shrink,

I feel so safe when you take my hand,
If only I could let you understand,

I want you so bad sometimes my heart is in the dirt,
We could never be true because you'd always get me hurt,

Although you would not be aware of the wrong you were doing,
The pain would be inside my heart and forever still be brewing,

I know I can't fix you although I've tried,
I am helplessly surrounded by the tears I've cried,

When you look with question at my blank face,
Please try to understand why we can't embrace.
