This Could Be It

Please tread lightly
Step inside the garden of my mind
Please speak kindly
Tragedy and I are intertwined
But I can paint the sky with colors
Of my misery (hmm)
If you come closer, you can read it
In my history (hmm)
Please go slowly
Gentle is the water in my veins
But I would be careful not to
Bother creatures lurking just the same
'Cause once I feel the tide as it rises
My boat capsizes
And every minute passing
Could be time that I am spending
Talking to you on the phone
It’s been too long since I have been alone
And I am hoping
That this could grow into something
But who am I to know how you define a home?
Oh I don’t know you yet
But this could be it
Please be warned, oh
I’m a bit straightforward when I sing
And I have the tendency to
Get obsessed with every little thing
'Cause once I have a grain of thought
That I’ve planted
It blooms in my head
And every minute passing
Could be time that I am spending
Talking to you on the phone
It’s been too long since I have been alone
And I am hoping
That this could grow into something
But who am I to know how you define a home?
Oh I don’t know you yet
But this could be it
'Cause once I feel the tide
I drown, I fight the current
Pulling me down
I overflow and I try to hide it
Now am I too much for you
Way too damn much for you?
No such thing as too much
So you better take it or leave it
But this could be it
This could be it
Oh this could be it
