i just can't be around you
and yet thats all i want
to feel your air and let you catch my breath
though i could easily let it fall
i even laugh a special way
when you look into my eyes
its so much more than weak at the knees
you simply penetrate my soul
i remember that one day we met
cause it wasn't long ago
where i saw you and only you walking
i felt as thin as smoke
and expected you to pass through me
but you stopped, and i was raptured
we talked like we didn't have to
and like we'd been doing it forever
your gaze a blanket for my freezing heart
but don't worry
i won't fall in love with you
but don't worry
i won't i won't fall in love with you

cause you'll probably see to that
i'm sure you can't be all that good
though you play it quite well
it'll happen that i'll begin to trust
those little things you say
and the way you touch me everywhere
without asking if its ok
(it is)
i'm sure you could carry my heart
for many moons passing
and beg for me to be there
and i may just depend on you being there for me
we'll laugh at all the stupid things
that we will only know about
and when we go to be with everyone
we'll probably end up loners
in a corner or somewhere silent
making our own fun whatever way we can
and when i'm gone you just might miss me
and ask me when i return
if i could just never leave again
but don't worry
i won't fall in love with you
but don't worry
i won't i won't fall in love with you

cause i'll probably see to that
you'll find out that i'm not that good
and i do a good job of showing it
i love myself so much and am very proud
but i know that i'll disappoint
and you deserve better than that
i'll convince myself i won't be around you
and try to avoid your glare
but i'll still find my way into your light
and in sight of your ravaging spheres
i'll make excuses to touch you
and allow you to touch me back
you'll teach me things i may have already known
but just wanted to hear from your mouth
and if that day comes
when you might make a move
i'll turn away, turn back again
and pray you're truly true
cause i don't want to give everything
if i'm not getting it back too
but don't worry
i won't fall in love with you
but don't worry
i won't i won't fall in love with you

cause fate probably will see to that
it'll turn out your just a great friend
and i just need to stop falling
it seems that if a decent man
comes tumbling around
i see a light in bleak romantic darkness
and fearfully latch on
and you couldn't be more great
if i engineered you myself
but perhaps i did, because you just get it
you're just on it, you just know it
and without saying a thing
(and it hasn't been that long!)
i just feel your simultaneous pulse
and know you recognize the same
but your great as just here
in this time and place
like those great ones before you
and the great ones that'll come later
i need to recognize that i am great too
and i don't need some high up
pedestal weilding greek god
to give me worth
so don't worry
i won't fall in love with you
don't please don't worry
cuz i won't i won't fall in love with you

but i can't help but worrying
that i'll fall in love with you
that someday, somewhere far away
i will fall in love with you

<3
