What I Never Told You

I'll say goodnight,
But you won't wake,
You'll be too far away,
To hear the words I say.

I'll tell you that I love you,
And tell you that you're beautiful,
I'll tell you everything I should,
All I couldn't when you weren't sleeping.

I'll cry to you about myself,
Say how you don't need someone like me,
Tell you to go find someone else,
Find the love that you deserve.

Because, sugar, I'm not good enough,
I never will be for one like you,
Although I try my hardest to,
I'll never be good enough for you.

When you wake up I'll be waiting,
See your eyes first thing of all,
Watch them for signs of regret,
That you woke up next to me.

But you never let it show,
And I fool myself into thinking,
That you really love me back,
And that you think I'm all you need.

You embrace me like you want to,
But I don't know if it's all true,
There's so much doubt in this one gesture,
But I cling to you and don't let go.

Because, sugar, I'm not good enough,
I never will be for one like you,
Although I try my hardest to,
I'll never be good enough for you.
