Remember When: First Album

Why

Sleepless nights with you in my head
Even when you call or text I feel distant and alone.
When my heart calls your name in the dark
But you turn your cheek and walk away

Why can't I live my life without you?
Why can't I live my life without you?
Why can't I be around you without feeling so out of breath?
Why do my hands shake beside yours and little glances your way?

Don't you ever see that we are the closest I've ever had
Can't we still be those two who laugh the loudest about nothing and everything
Be the two who walk against the other and pay no mind

I wanna tell you everything my heart screams
The cries it yells in to the black night sky when I thought you were my light
I wanna feel your skin against my palm without having to deal with the burden
The feeling of your hands in mine when you put me in a haze

Why can't I live my life without you?
Why can't I be around you without feeling like running a marathon?
Why do my hands shake beside yours and little glances your way?

Someday I promise We won't be as distant and be closer than every time before
I promise we have the time of the world
For you to realize that I have people who are there any way.

But some day you may be too late
To see me this way as I do you
I may be beside someone who returns the feeling
When you discover the way we felt for each other

You'll remember the way I saw you and regret that you never did before
You'll see me beside my equal and remember this song as I tell my heart on paper
You'll understand the words that my heart screams in to the night
You'll feel the way I once did when you were blind

Why can't I live my life without you?
Why can't I breathe easy near you as we walk?
Why do my hands shake beside yours and little glances your way?

 I'll wait for the day, the day you realize what you mean to me
I'll have all I ever wanted in life
I'll have the answers to the why's
