You don't have to love me
The way I love you
You don't have to love me
The way I love you
I've been kneeling all through the blue afternoon
I've been kneeling all through the blue afternoon
I was praying you'd believe me
I was praying you wouldn't leave me
I was saying can you see me?
I was blinded by my reflection
In a pool
I was blinded by my reflection
In a pool
My face was calm
The water was cool
My face was calm
The water was cool
And it looked like I was drowning
And the water was still shining
And my heart was pounding
And pining
You don't have to love me
The way I love you
I love you
