Subside

We should be lovers
Or at least that’s how the tune should go
The question hovers
We’re in a bed of denial below
It creeps upon me
Begins to sway my thoughts to and fro
Unruly feeling
Taking my mind to where it shouldn’t go
I need you to want me
So much that one touch will make you so nervous you might stop breathing
So much that one touch will make you so reckless you might start feeling
So brave that one touch will finally show to me what you can’t hide
But until then I’ll wait for this ache to subside
They want a story
To fly the flag of the old cliche
A public glory burton and taylor made
I need you to want me
So much that one touch will make you so nervous you might stop breathing
So much that one touch will make you so reckless you might start feeling
So brave that one touch will finally show to me what you can’t hide
But until then I’ll wait for this ache to subside
We can’t be lovers
For the sake of love not to waste
Roll back the covers
Would we find there our rightful place
You yearn for wisdom
But for my youth I won’t apologize
Too young to give up
On a life I romanticize
Too young to compromise
I need you to want me
So much that one touch will make you so nervous you might stop breathing
So much that one touch will make you so reckless you might start feeling
So brave that one touch will finally show to me what you can’t hide
But until then I’ll wait for this ache to subside
