Lyrics As He Pleases - Kate Walsh

As He Pleases

I have learned not to ask
Not to let him know that I’m feeling
'Cause in a cup he collects all that I was ever dreaming
And he scatters it to the sea and says he’s leaving
And suddenly I feel that I’ve stopped breathing
I can’t pretend to be strong
Not when he’s the one I’m needing
They are wrong when they tell me I’d do better just to leave him
'Cause he takes me to a place that I can breath in
But all I can do is watch him leaving
Why can’t I think of anything before him?
Am I just a soul waiting for him?
I don’t want to know
No, it’s better not to know
And he can come and go
As he pleases
So I have learned not to ask
Not to let him know that I miss him
'Cause I am so terrified to cool the fire in case I lose him
And I know he doesn’t know just what he’s doing
And he has no idea how far I’m falling
Why can’t I think of anything before him?
Am I just a soul waiting for him?
I don’t want to know
No, it’s better not to know
He doesn’t want to show
So it’s better not to know
And he can come and go as he pleases
