If You Give Me Time
You're someone I once knew
But you're not the same
You know the rules
But can't play the game
It's like you know the words
But not the song
And you try to sing
But it comes out wrong
You used to be my other half
I was the yin to your yang
We would be in our world
Until realities bell rang
I miss you so much
You were my best friend
Please just tell me
Why did it have to end?
Is this because
I wanted us to stay as we were?
Because I was scared
To take things further?
You knew how I felt about love!
You knew how hard it is for me to even trust
So why why why
Was stepping up a must
I can only go slow
Because I'm anchored by my past
So why did you try with force
To make things happen so fast?
I might have come around
If given the time
Was being scared
Such a crime?
I could have changed
For you
I could have trusted
And what did you do?
You pulled
You rushed
Then left me broken
And crushed
I'm not sure
If I'll recover
Or if someday
I'll find another
What I know is
We can't be what we once were
That's one thing
I know for sure
Beyond the hurt and anger
I'm just sad
Because with force
You broke what we had
Let's build something new
Bit by important bit
I'll try my best
To see you in that light
But please don't push
I couldn't take another fight
It'll take awhile
But it's a start
You're going seem different
Now that I know what's in your heart
Right now
I only know your face
I'll get to know the new you
At my own pace
Being scared
Is my crime
But I'll repent
If you give me time
But you're not the same
You know the rules
But can't play the game
It's like you know the words
But not the song
And you try to sing
But it comes out wrong
You used to be my other half
I was the yin to your yang
We would be in our world
Until realities bell rang
I miss you so much
