unrequited

He had all kind of reasons

Why she was unable to love him

She was just too young

She was too high strung

She was afraid of commitment

But all of the theories

That he recited

Played like the song

Of the unrequited

And baby, how long's it been now

Since you held me to your chest

And told me that you love me

More than all the rest?

It's such a shame that you won't talk to me

'Cuz I won't repeat after you

I believe that there is more to life

We could've loved each other through

But I was afraid of commitment

When it came to you

I'll tell you, if there is one instinct

I just can't get with at all

It's the urge to kill something beautiful

Just to hang it on your wall

Are you just too young?

Are you too high strung

To actually follow through

On all the love you said you had?

Baby, I never lied to you

Is all or nothing

Really the best we can do?
