Dulcet Tones

Can we behave? Isn't it late?
It's you that I crave
But something has changed
It's my turn to stare
But you pull away
Always afraid
Of feelings so great
I slink on my chair
Maybe you'll care
Maybe you'll share
The things in your head
I want to berate
Your every mistake
There's no give and take
But i guess i'll wait
Till daybreak
All our laughter
Comes after
We talk in dulcet tones
Of the love that
Once happened
That Sunday afternoon
I feel no shame
In making it plain
That i love your brain
And your long flowing mane
But we aren't the same
You pull away
Always afraid
Of feelings so great
