Catching My Breath

I cannot speak, I can barely hear you

My world spins around in silent slow mode

Could you please repeat these words I swear you now seem to utter so softly to me

Confusion stares blankly as you ask if I do

Your frustration's confirmation that you said I love you

Please forgive me I was just catching my breath

Blown away by every part of life making sense

Shaken by the dream that we're sleeping the four letter word that is all, hopelessly gone,

I fall

This coffee's still hot, but time is frozen

I'd say makes you, but that's unspoken

I wish that this shot could be replaced

Whenever we lose sight of all that we've got

Illusion is now real but the shock is still here

I do my best to keep control and fight back ten million tears

Fall into your arms, so scared (so please don't hurt me)

Know that my heart will stay here (and is safe with you)

I can't say all that I feel, so take this kiss for all the words I mean to offer you

Please forgive me I was catching my breath

Confusion stares blankly as you ask if I do

Awoken by the dream that we're sleeping

The four letter word that is all

Hopelessly gone

I fall
