Can we talk for a second, though I don't know just what to say
There's something I've just got to let you know
I've been thinking about you, I know it's crazy to feel this way
Am I wrong for trying not to let it show
I look at you, and something washes over me
With a strength that I can't seem to overcome
Can it be that I'm being pulled out to sea
And there's no use in trying to fight or run
I know this is sounding odd, but that's not what I mean
And I'd like to help you understand, I'd like to help you see
I just want to be your friend
I think that we can last till the end
This time it's so much stronger than it ever was before
And I'd love to have the chance to get to know you a little more
When I had the chance to do this, I just let it slip away
And it hurt so much to think about what I'd done
I just got so nervous, I couldn't think of anything to say
I guess I looked more like a fool than I did "the one"
I know I can't take back my mistakes of that day
When I let all of my fears get in the way
Is there a way to get past it, can I have another chance
I know that you and I can play this part, that we can share this dance
I just want to be your friend
I think that we can last till the end
Can I give it another try, can I help you see why
I feel that I need you in my life
