If I had one day with you,
I'd spend my life chasing the sun.
And endlessly I'd change myself,
Until you like what I become.
My eyes give out a hollow stare,
Because I'm empty without you.
But don't tell me there's nothing there,
There's a heart that beats for you.
Don't tell me that you're ugly,
My eyes would disagree.
Don't try to be like someone else,
You're the only one for me.
Don't tell me that I'm silent,
Because inside I am screaming.
And when you're lying in my arms,
Don't tell me that I'm dreaming.
I won't ask you to fall for me,
I won't ask you to love me too.
I just wish you could see yourself
The way I look at you.
Let my scars paint a picture,
Of how I fell for you.
Let my heart tell a story,
Of everything I'd do.
I'm chasing at your shadow,
It's my mind that you haunt.
And I'll tell you, "Girl, I'm sorry
If I'm not the one you want."
I'd march across my broken heart,
Just to see you smile.
And if you were to give the word,
I'd march into exile.
You know I'd do whatever you say,
Your wish is my command.
But please don't ask me to walk away,
With you is where I stand.
Don't tell me that I'm hurting you,
I just wish you could be stronger.
Don't tell me that you have to go,
I want to hold you a moment longer.
I won't ask you to treat me different,
But one thing remains true.
I wish I could make you love yourself,
As much as I love you.
Let my scars paint a picture,
Of how I fell for you.
Let my heart tell the story,
Of everything I'd do.
I'm chasing at your shadow,
It's my mind that you haunt.
And I'll tell you, "Girl, I'm sorry
If I'm not the one you want."
I'll pick up all the pieces,
I'll put back on my mask.
And if you wonder if I still care,
You shouldn't have to ask.
I'll still chase at your shadow,
My love not ever gone.
I tell you that I'm sorry
That I'm not the one you want.
