Can I Not?

How can I love you this much?
Need you this much? Can I not?
The relief of a wasp flying into the room
Only to fly straight back out
That is how I desire to see
The last close call between you and me
How can I love you this much?
Need you this much? Can I not?
But I still got myself stung
But the sting ain’t the thing that hurts
Bruised ego and a broken heart
I close my eyes and I can hear you laugh
How can I love you this much?
Need you this much? Can I not?
How can I love you, love you so much?
Can I not?
How can I need you, need you this much? Can I not?
