227

I never asked for this to happen
I hadn’t wanted this from the start
But it seems that my mind has a notion
That’s very different from that of my heart

I’ve told myself time and again
That I wouldn’t, couldn’t, fall
But I’m head over heels, flat on my face
And I don’t know what to do at all

It feels like a million waterfalls
Rushing quickly into my lungs
I can’t breathe right, I can’t think straight
The chords of my heart have been strung

But I can’t feel this way about you
I promised myself that I just would not
Because I know deep within my soul
That my chances with you are a long shot

So I must find a way to stop this
I must restrain all the little butterflies
I can’t go on like this for another day
Because this happiness will just make me cry

You had stolen me without even knowing it,
Volleying your compassion my way,
But I can’t live like this anymore
It’s time for me to walk away.
