Lyrics / You Should Know

Here I am
and there you are.
I can’t understand
why we’re so far apart.

here i am
and there you are.
it began when your soul
quickly captured my heart.

down the road
i ought to know
by now
following
the same routine
that is somehow now failing

laughter fades
oh i try to fight it
it invades
and i can’t hide it
i’m left with emptiness.

your smile invaded my whole
being
pumped feeling
through my empty veins.

indecision (courses) through me
you took everything i need
and just left me—
what’s left of me.
And what’s left of me needs you.

distance began
like the slow slip of a hand
my life fading through your fingertips
it transformed
sinking through quick sand
we’re moving faster now
we’re moving farther now.

it’s been weeks since we’ve kissed
i’m left grasping
for a life i once knew
that no longer exists

anything i’ve ever done wrong
i’d take back each one
i’d prove that we belong
that you belong
with me.

i can’t make a decision on my own
after all you’re the one to know
what i’m thinking
what i’m feeling
what i want.
you should know…
i think i love you
i feel it now
i want you.
i want you to know (gets quieter)
i love you. i feel it. i want you.
i love you. i feel it. i want you.
i want you. i want you.

Passion fades
but i’ll light a fire.
People change
but you still inspire.
you’re the reason
i keep breathing…

I love this. I know what you meant when you wrote it [thanks to your reviewer notes] but I took something totally different from it. My long term boyfriend just left for college, and i’m still in highschool. I felt it described what we’re going through perfectly. Even though it’s not as your reviewer notes described, that’s a good thing. It’s relatable and can mean something to each individual, and you can take your own traslation away from it. Very Good!
