Slow songs make me cry

turning on the music
slow songs once again
ones that make me cry
and put you in my head

cuddling my pillow
wishing it were you
trying to think of a reason
as to why you would love me to

and i find myself running dry
but i still find a way to cry
making a mess of my face
wiping it all over the place

telling myself I'll be just fine
and that your just a wast of time
telling myself I'd be better off
if i never had you at all

but lying doesn't do much good
because i know yes i know
in my heart i would die
if i were ever forced to let you go

and to think that love hurts so bad
when theres no one to hold your hand
shouldn't love be all smiles
the willing to go that extra mile

but do you know I'm willing
but living in fear
what am i to do
when i need you here

to think i want you to wipe my eyes
dry my tears for the rest of my life
but anyways i want to forget
how much i need this

so I'll close my eyes and wonder why
these stars of mine don't shine
if only i had a match
to light a candle in the dark

because right now I'm blind
to everything i am
i need someone to show me
a real reason to grin

to take me were the sun shines
and look me in the eyes
tell me how much they love me
so i know I'm not alone
