Songs I Wrote

What We Need

It's so hard to see the slow implosion

Of your relationship in motion

All those times that he ignored you

Is every second that I've adored you

If you find your ship sinking, tattered by jagged rocks,

I have a passenger seat with your name on it

The feeling's in the air and I think I caught it

You can't tell me that you don't feel it

And I know it'd be wrong to steal it

But I've never wanted a heart like this

We don't have to waste anymore time

You've always wondered what we could be,

I think you and me is exactly what we need

I'm not telling you to return the ring

I'm not telling you to do a thing

I won't feel like I'll be complete

Until there's no one to compete

I know I'm good enough for you now

I could make you so much happier than him

It's in your eyes, what do you think?

You can't tell me that you don't feel it

And I know it'd be wrong to steal it

But I've never wanted a heart like this

We don't have to waste anymore time

You've always wondered what we could be,

I think you and me is exactly what we need

Every fight is just another chip in the paint

He says it's fine, but you just wait

You paint and paint all night long,

But covering it up doesn't make it gone

I think helping you two have a future

Is gonna take more than paint remover

I know that you're together

But don't you deserve better?

You can't tell me that you don't feel it

And I know it'd be wrong to steal it

But I've never wanted a heart like this

We don't have to waste anymore time

You've always wondered what we could be,

I think you and me is exactly what we need
