I don't even know if I believe Everything you're trying to say to me So open up my eyes Tell me I'm alive This is never gonna go our way If I'm gonna have to guess what's on your mind You may call it in this evening But you've only lost the night Present

I'm living on such sweet nothing So I put my faith in something unknown But I'm trying to hope with nothing to hold And it's hard to learn And it's hard to love When you're giving me such sweet nothing Sweet nothing, sweet nothing You're giving me such

It's like one step forward and two steps back No matter what I do you're always mad Maybe we're not meant to be And I, I can't change your mind I know it's like trying to turn around on a one way street I can't give you what you want And it's killing me

I am that man You're trying to find You had in mind And I'll give you all my love 'Till you understand I won't give up 'Cause I know You put your heart up on a shelf I know it's hard to be by yourself

I am that man You're trying to find You had in mind And I'll give you all my love 'Till you understand I won't give up 'Cause I know You put your heart up on a shelf I know it's hard to be by yourself

Wait, mmm, wait All of your pressure brings Making me questions things I know what you're trying to hear And I wanna say it to you but you need to I'm trying, give me a second I wanna take the time to do what's right 'Cause I can't rush decisions, give

For you baby I'm slipping into the lava Cause I'm burnin' up, burnin' up Baby who turned the temperature hotter And I'm trying to keep from going under You're cold You go around Like you know

But heaven knows, knows That you're lying As far as heaven goes, heaven goes I just stopped trying You've spent a year staring into a mirror Another one trying to figure out what you saw Paid so much attention to what you're not You have no idea who you

Do you ever really know? Can you ever really know? I can't read your mind though I'm trying all the time There's something I don't know, I can see it in your eyes When you're gone again But I am left in awe of the woman I adore Cupped hand is burning ice

You're yearning, wearing thin Searching for something I know what you're hiding but they can't see what you've got What you've got, baby, what you've got, baby Quit crying and stop trying to be someone you're not What you're not baby, what you're not
