lyrics

There are so many things that I wish I could say
So many times that I wish I could spend with you
So many circumstances getting in the way
What I want is so damn wrong; there's nothing I can do

But that won't help me sleep at night
And I just can't convince myself that it's alright
I tell you I'm alright, but that's just an act
You just don't know what I'm holding back

I wish that I could have you

I bite my tongue so hard, knowing you've made all kinds of plans
Hour by hour, I pull myself together, with no choice but to understand
Piece by piece, it rips out everything I am inside
There's nothing more I want in this world than for you to see my eyes

But that won't help me sleep at night
And I just can't convince myself that it's alright
I tell you I'm alright, but that's just an act
You just don't know what I'm holding back

I wish that I could have you
