Everything

I want to tell you everything
but the words dont leave my mouth
I want to give you everything
but Im afraid Im fresh out
 
I know that its perfect
That everything is alright
But I just cant help
That Im filled with fright
 
I know that it’s easy
Attention is never lost
But for what I seek
Im afraid there’s a cost
 
Ive fallen for many
Ive landed for few
Im spinning in my head
Im floating for you
 
I know its just rummaging
Pointless thoughts in my head
I dont know why Im scared
This fear I have fed
 
I know that Im worrying
For no reasons to claim
I know that Im whining
Like a driver in the slow lane
 
I cant shake the feeling
you’re too good to be true
But maybe I deserve this
Deserve someone like you
 
Maybe Im just nervous
And I psych myself out
Because I think you’re perfect
Ive not a single doubt
 
I keep pacing in my room
Like my heart’s about to burst
Just wishing you were here
Know there’s nothing worse
 
I wish I could hug you
And just listen to you speak
And in your arms, in your bed
the only place I can sleep
 
I think that you’re funny
and I like the way you laugh
And your smile is inviting
Cutting my breath in half
 
I think that you’re cute
and I like your blue eyes
And I think that you’re sweet
never filled my head with lies
 
I think that you’re smart
And I really like the way
You show me your heart
All the things you want to say
 
And I hope that you think
that I can be everything
That you’ve ever wanted
All I want to be.
