(Miles is making me include the lyrics per the rules of recordin @ his place sooooooo)

How can I write about love when all I've known is pain?
How can I verbalize what I can't explain?
How do I get back up when I fall too deep?
& what if this is something I'm not meant to keep?

I've held this dream down inside my pipe & now it's comin through
Now all I breathe is you

& now I'm shakin
Cuz this is the most I ever felt for anybody
Afraid to jump, but might as well
I hear your heartbeat
Our rhythms beat in perfect time
Yeah I'm so damn lucky
Or I would be if you were really mine

How could I allow this to slip through my hands?
How can you just tell me I don't understand?
How are your beliefs better than the truth?
I'm stuck in a shattered mirror, not good enough for you

That same old dream down inside my pipe had no choice in comin true
I don't know what to do

Cuz now I'm shakin
This is the most I ever felt for anybody
Didn't wanna jump, but I did, & I fell
I hear your heartbeat
I'm strugglin to keep in time
I feel like nothin
Cuz you made it clear you were never mine
