Please don't look at me, with that look in your eyes.

It really isn't fair to me,

And I think you know why.

Just the slightest glance from you, and I melt, I go weak.

You got me askin' if I lost my mind,

Wish I could turn back time.

Regrettin' all that I might've left behind.

Nothing more than broken dreams and whispered rhymes,

To keep me sane, lyin' awake at night.

So dark without you, lost with no light.

It's hard to focus in silence so loud.

Trapped in a dream world with my head in the clouds.
