I know I don’t always say how I feel

Don’t always keep one foot in the real world

I lie sometimes, just like everybody else

But that’s just life

I ask if you’re okay too much, even though I know how much you hate that

You fill a space in my heart when you’re near

And I feel a joy in my soul when you’re near

A thousand words, flying apologies

I know you say things you don’t mean

In the heat of the moment, when you can’t control it and I can’t stop wondering

But if you’ve forgotten, or I am mistaken

Remember we started something

You keep your defences and my head’s always a mess

But I need you permanently

You fill a space in my heart when you’re near

And I feel a joy in my soul when you’re near
