I Don't Know

I cannot sing you a song
but I can write you its lyrics
I cannot give you the world
but I can give you my everything

I could pray to God to keep you by my side
but in the meantime, I’ll do my best
I could bring you a dozen roses each day
but I’d rather give you 11, to represent that in this 1 lifetime, you’re the only 1 I love

I won’t make you promises
but I will do my best to keep my word
I won’t open my heart for you
but I’ll give you the key

I would love you ‘til forever ended
but that means my love for you would end
I would tell you my darkest secrets
but you have to earn my trust

I am doing my best
I am giving my all
This was my test
Yet, still I fall

Deeper into this masquerade
For once I am afraid
That I won’t make it out alright
This is a first, on this full-mooned night

Will I still love you in the morning?
Will you even remember my name?
Was it only my tears that were pouring?
Was I just a game?

I’ve already forgotten what it felt like to be lost in that place
Take me there once more and watch my sanity melt away
