It feels like you're so far away
even though you're right here.
I feel like such a fool for love
when all it brings is pain and fear.
It feels like I don't have you
even though I guess I do...
... it feels as if it's out of sync
-- the feelings that I have for you.
I feel as if I'm losing
though you're telling me I've won...
as if I'm closer now to failing
than I was when I begun.
I'm so afraid to lose you
though my heart is giving in
because although I really want you
I feel like I'll never win.
Nobody thought to warn me that I'd ever feel this way
-- as if I'm running in a circle while someone sprints far away.
I just wanted to fall in love and now I'm wishing I did not
because it's easy letting go when you were never holding on.
I'm holding onto you, though I try hard to loose my grip
because it hurts less letting go than knowing that you let me slip,
and even though it's hard to say just what the ending's gonna be
I must admit, it feels as if you've already let go of me.
{Don't let me go -- I love you,
and I'm scared to hit the ground
... but I won't blame you if you close your eyes as I come falling down...}
