Don't You See

Although it'd be nice if the words would come out fluently
Like when I write a letter to a friend
What I want is more time for us to get to know each other
It's so lonely when the only ones I won't betray
Are my family; Love is asking to be loved
Though I know that I'd be better off
If I stopped believing

Don't you see!
Even though I wish and pray for miracles and memories
I'm a bit worried
Don't you see!
If I act a little disillusioned
It's because I'm afraid of being hurt

The silence while we were waiting at the taxi stop
Was only five minutes, but felt so much longer
I never thought that our relationship
Would have grown this tired and faded

Don't you see!
I'm relieved because we're the type of couple
Who won't give up because of a small fight
Don't you see!
More than seeing various other people
I always want to see the same old you

Don't you see! I'll never worry, tonight
I'll lay me down tonight.
You know, I do it for you.
Don't you see!
The smell of your town
As we walk beneath the roadside trees at dusk
Don't you see!
No matter how much of a rush
The rest of the world is in, hold on to me
