I would kill to fall in love
Alas I've never known what love was
And I don't think I'd like to die
Cause I'm afraid of what could lie beyond the sky
And you were special to me once
But then you changed your clothes and mind at the same time
So I packed my bags and headed south
And lied to people saying I knew all the silly things they spoke about
When I woke up this afternoon
My spirit sat beside me on the porch and we both drank a few
We sorted out my feelings too
And burned the mental pictures that pertained to me and you
If I could trust myself to speak
I'd tell you all the reasons you've ever meant anything
To me and how you came to be
My greatest pleasure and the only thing I fear besides heights and me
It's good that I was born a mute
Because if I could form some words I'd cause a big dispute
And I know that you find me rude
But I'm a boy who only knows the things that he's become accustomed to
If I could take away your pain
I'd only end up making new wounds that your friends would blame
On your good looks and trusting side
And I'd be shadowed by fact that for a moment I was yours and you were mine.
