| I wish I could change the look on your face
|
| Paint it like a picture with me as the colour of your eyes
|
| Rewrite the words coming from your mouth
|
| Make them full of admiration
|
| Make them kind
|
| I’m not gonna stay and watch you with your friends
|
| Don’t want to hear them laughing
|
| When they see you imitating me
|
| Sneak out the back, cower like a dog
|
| With our conversation relentlessly playing on repeat
|
| I’m trying to reach you but I’m so far from reaching your heart
|
| And when I try to talk to you all the lines I rehearsed fall apart
|
| You make me make a fool of myself
|
| Still, I’m trying to reach you but I’m so far from reaching your heart
|
| I wish I could take back the words I didn’t say
|
| Fill out the silence with something clever instead
|
| Make you see the kind of man I am
|
| Now that it’s too late all the right words appear in my head
|
| Appear in my head (x3)
|
| I’m trying to reach you but I’m so far from reaching your heart
|
| And when I try to talk to you all the lines I rehearsed fall apart
|
| You make me make a fool of myself
|
| Still, I’m trying to reach you but I’m so far from reaching your heart
|
| Heart (x3)
|
| I’m trying to reach you but I’m so far from reaching your heart
|
| And when I try to talk to you all the lines I rehearsed fall apart
|
| You make me make a fool of myself
|
| Still, I’m trying to reach you but I’m so far from reaching your heart |
