Removed

It's one of those nights
When you come so close to it
You close your eyes
Hold that tender moment
You feign surprise
When you hear those words said

I think I love you
But I can't get used to it

You let the answer
Rest upon your lips
Afraid your desire
Overtakes your common sense
But that warm embrace
Chases the world away
And you can't find the courage
Or the right words to say

I think I love you
I think I love you

You wait for a sign
To know you're on the right track
Aware that your choices may mean
Never turning back
But you blur the lines between
Need and escape

I think I love you
I think I love you
I think I love you

Wherever you are
I am thinking of you
I miss you endlessly
But I will be home soon
I'm simply a child
With my dreams removed
And I will never love anyone
I will never love anyone
