I Push You Away

Afraid to get too close I push you away

when what I want the most is just for you to stay

Afraid to need you more than words can ever say

when your time on earth is up you'd seem so far away

And I just can't live with that so I push you away

 

It is just too hard to be the one that's left behind

It really devastates me It really blows my mind

When I think of wasted time keeping you at bay

You were never really mine yet I'm in dismay

 

I know that I think too much

Often feel out of touch

You mean so much but I don't show it

and so I have become a poet

 

Afraid to get too close I push you away

when what I want the most is just for you to stay

Afraid to need you more than words can ever say

when your time on earth is up you'd seem so far away

And I just can't live with that so I push you away

 

Please don't go

even though

I push you away

Please don't go

even though

I push you away

begging you to stay

but I push you away

I push you away
