falling for you
makes me feel protected
but you look at me like a friend
and i look at you with my heart open
but you can't read my gaze
you're the only one who can't
maybe if you could read minds
i wouldn't have to tell you
and you would just stay in this moment
and hold me
like i'm yours
and never let me go
