It's like being stuck in a box Trapped behind a pane of glass Seperated from your heart's desire Always from the outside looking in The answer's 'no I'm not ready' How can I open your eyes wide? Smash the glass between us Be that kid in a candy store Eyes aglow and a one track mind And finally own happiness incarnate I see multiple futures in your eyes A frisson of hope and need Denied by your past experiences The light flickers then dies Once more the beautiful let down I wish I'd met you years ago To stop your fears developing Your one and only from the start The light in your dark And the truth in the lies I'm sorry if I've hurt you I'm sorry if I let you down But fact is it's you Who fuels me, feeds me My true desire
