lyrics
I’ve been thinking ’bout us, thinking ’bout love,
Thinking ’bout falling to pieces
I’ve been thinking that maybe I’ve been wrong all this time
’Cause I’ve been watching you walk, watching you talk,
Watching you stand hands in pockets
I’ve been wondering how to live if you’re not in my life
If you’re not in my life
Oh don’t mind me, I’m just in agony, I just die a little more each day
Tell me how can I breathe with you looking at me that way?
I’ve been coming undone, biting my tongue
Words bubble up without warning
I just might let it slip how quick I’d give you my heart
’Cause I can no longer bear being so aware
Of the distance there between our fingers
A matter of inches might be miles apart
Oh don’t mind me, I’m just in agony, I just die a little more each day
Tell me how can I breathe with you looking at me that way?
If you want me just say something ’cause all this nothing
Is killing me slow, slow, slow
So if you want me just say something ’cause it’s torment
Every time you don’t mind me
I’m just in agony
Don’t mind me, I’m just in agony, I just die a little more each day
Tell me how can I breathe with you looking at
Looking at, looking at, looking at
Don’t mind me, I’m just in agony, I just die a little more each day
Tell me how can I breathe with you looking at me that way?
