I still couldn’t say “I love you” today
Even though we’ve spent so much time together
I wanted to see you, so I sang your favourite song
Again and again on my way home
The tone of your voice when you talk, where you look, and even what you say to other people
Those little things captivate me
I hope you feel the same, that your answer is here too
If only the miracle I’ve been waiting for would happen here
I still couldn’t say “I love you” today
Even though we’ve spent so much time together
I wanted to see you right away, so I sang your favourite song
Again and again on my way home
I even loved the warmth I felt when our hands touched by chance
I felt like you were taking in every bit of me
What meeting you has taught me will change me, more than I have so far
My last love had me hanging my head
Swearing I’d never love again
But even I felt like I could live for someone again
I’m going to tell you how I feel
Wherever I am, whatever I do, I can’t get you out of my head
You taught me the agony of not being able to reach something, the pain of lust, the joy of love
Your smile, and your voice on the phone, and your small body that’s no good in crowds
And even your bad habits – they all shine out as things only you have
All those things are the one and only
Inside me, my love for you becomes the strength to live through tomorrow
If only we could meet, we could put our faith in the same steps and walk this road
Just thinking of you like this
Is painful and my love grows
I wanted to see you, so I sang your favourite song
Again and again on my way home
no Innocence, just Me
