It's wanting you to be happy
Even though I know it'll never be with me
It's waiting up for you to reply
Even though we've already said goodnight
It's the jumping of my heart, and the pain in my chest at seeing you smile
You're the only one who can make me simultaneously happy and sorrowful
It's the weak laugh at your gorgeous eyes
Even though I know they're looking for her
And not me
It's the comfort of knowing that it'll pass, and someone will teach me to love again
Even though I want us to last forever
It's wishing for your arms to keep me safe
Even though I know I'd never tell you so
It's dreaming of living for you
Even though I could die thinking about it
It's giving myself to you
Even though I know you'd never love me
