Where I'll be keeping you safely now Is in my world of dreams Where you don't disappoint me By thinking that I can be interpreted by The experiences of those close to me And that I have become like them That would make me truly sick I don't have to be sorry for something I'm not Here I guard my heart and it can't be shattered Where the others in my life can't see us And each time that you look at me I'll let it feed my private blaze My pulsing heart is insulated well So the ice I show outside won't melt Wearing my secret smile on the inside And watching you and imagining touch You won't be any the wiser Though I hope to leave you wondering In reality I take things at face value To the point that I'm bloody naive So my responses won't give me away I won't be an open book Letting you see my secrets I'll reinterpret our meetings for me In my own time and space To feed my ego and lovesick heart I'll fulfill your expectations In the best possible ways I'll keep society happy as well They'll think I'm really over you My imagination will be rich And that's the way it will always stay Perhaps occasionally I'll betray myself In very special ways to tease out A rapport again if it starts to go If it did heartbreak would start to show People might think I've slipped But it will only be occasionally And I'll be amused by the women That want you in their life And I want to watch you chase them Because you can be such a fool And I'll watch your responses As I begin to learn to flirt Because I never did know how I love the way that you are Whether you look at me or not Whether you talk to me or not When you put your feet up on a chair I just hate it when you turn your back And how that makes me feel Because although I wish I didn't There's no denying now, I love you And I'll never disappoint you |
