Lyrics
Nothing but a tear, that's all for breakfast Watching you pretend you're unaffected Pullin' our connections, expecting me to let you go But I won't Know you don't need my protection But I'm in love, can't blame me for checking I love in your direction, hoping that the message goes Somewhere close to you Close to you Like so close if they hurt you, you wouldn't find out Just say now, I'm coming right now, to be close to you Said you let it go, you kept it Working hard to perfect it Now your fear is reckless, and it's out of your control Would you let it go? Know you don't need my protection But I'm in love, can't blame me for checking I love in your direction, hoping that the message goes Somewhere close to you Close to you Like so close, if they hurt you, you wouldn't find out If you let me, I'd be there by now Close to you
