I guess it was too much.

by Run out of words   May 26, 2007


You really did seem perfect,
you really did seem enough.
You seemed so pure on the surface,
facing the truth is pretty tough.

I don't see what I did wrong,
and I don't see why it couldn't work out.
Yes, the distance is long,
but trust is what it's supposed to be about.

Have you forgotten those late nights?
Those chats, jokes and silly little fights?
And when it was time to go I said I love our chats,
and you said you did too, that was that.

I really thought we liked each other,
you said that you did.
Well what went wrong what was the bother?
What turned this dream into something morbid?

I didn't want the sun and moon,
to be laid for me on the floor.
All I wanted was a little bit of you,
Was that a bit too much to ask for?

What separates us my dear,
Merely an ocean and merely the sky?
Yet everyday I can feel you near,
In my head,
there's not a single moment you don't rush by.

If age was the matter,
why were you with your ex?
It's really a flatter,
that you don't want me involved in your mess.

Well I think that's an excuse,
you're just trying to stay a distance.
You're not something I want to loose,
if you said I'd be there in an instance.

If it means getting hurt,
then I'll gladly scrape my knee in the dirt.
If it means having to wait a while,
I'll wait I'll wait, along with a smile.
If it means letting you cry on me,
I'll bring extra shirts sweety.
If it means loving you until your wounds heal,
then I'll love you sweety...on the floor I will kneel.

But you don't want the help....
No no you don't.
You want me to let you hide in the shell,
No no I won't.

It's not going to happen,
not with me around.
If it means taking years or seconds,
I'll get you out of those clouds and on the ground.

But first you have to let me,
first you have to talk.
Because if you just avoid me,
sooner or later I'll get on with the walk.

I didn't want the sun and moon,
to be laid for me on the floor.
All I wanted was a little bit of you,
Was that a bit too much to ask for?
