lyrics

Keep your heart down while you're out in the world
'cause I would like to keep it when you come back to town
I'll be around, if only because you make me lonely
when you're gone

Hold off falling for her, or anyone for that matter
'cause I am holding to a moment, I remember
we were close, so nearly nose to nose,
please don't say it's been too long


I'll be the answer to your question if you'll ask for me someday
I'll keep your secrets if you'll keep me, just tell me to stay


Stay in touch or I'll imagine too much
it's such an easy thing to do to think you feel it too
you might not call me but you'll never fool me
you were real

Find yourself out there and know that I don't need you
though I would bleed to see you
and still the message will not send
I cannot pretend I don't depend on how you feel


I know the risk involved in wishing, but I cannot let it go
I've wasted lifetimes for a lifetime with a love I'll never know


No, I guess it's stupid to root for Cupid
who would let you travel as I stay and unravel
all my thoughts and feelings, caught and reeling here
I'm still here
