1. You only stay with me in the morning
You only hold me when I sleep
I was meant to tread the water
But now I've gotten in too deep.

For every piece of me that wants you
Another piece backs away.

[Chorus:]
You give me something
That makes me scared alright
This could be nothing
But I'm willing to give it a try
Please give me something
(Because someday I might know my heart).

2. You only waited up for hours
Just to spend a little time alone with me
And I can say I've never bought you flowers
I can't work out what they mean.

I never thought that I'd love someone
That was someone else's dream.

[Bridge:]
But it might be a second too late
And the words that I could never say
Are gonna come out anyway.

[Chorus x2]
