I Only Get Better

I want you to know me

So many things

I wish I could say

I only hope for an ending

Not so painful

But enough to walk away

Because I think that you'r hurting

As much as I am

And maybe more

I've been crazy about you

Since the first thing

But I don't know if I can

Feel like before



Weren't you the one

Who talked about love

And us getting married

I thought after my first time

That kind of thing

Would really scare me

But it didn't

It felt so right,

Too good to

Ever be wrong



But now we don't talk much, if ever

You say it's me

That I did it all

So why am I

Feeling like I've given

Cuz you made me fall

Yet taken back

By you giving back never

If you worry about causing me pain

Know I only get better



Someone once said

Love is worth

Much more than gold

But I've never known

What real love really is

So everything I'm to feel

I've only been told

Sometimes I wish

I could have you

The way you said

You wanted me, too

But what is there between us

Mostly fear of hurting the other

I'm so afraid

To do that to you



But now we don't talk much, if ever

You say it's me

That I did it all

So why am I

Feeling like I've given

Cuz you made me fall

Yet taken back

By you giving back never

If you worry about causing me pain

Know I only get better



Weren't you the one

Who talked about love

And us getting married

I thought after my first time

That kind of thing

Would really scare me

But it didn't

It felt so right,

Too good to

Ever be wrong



Are we only holding on

To something non-existent

Proving that the two of us

Are really gone

Too cheated to be together

Too unhappy

To know what we have

I just wanted to tell you

That no matter what and whether

We continue on or not,

You're still the best

That I've ever had



But now we don't talk much, if ever

You say it's me

That I did it all

So why am I

Feeling like I've given

Cuz you made me fall

Yet taken back

By you giving back never

If you worry about causing me pain

Know I only get better



Weren't you the one

Trying

To build me up

To take pain away

And think you could give enough

So I'd never say

Please go away

But now I think you've given up

Because I'm not enough

Though as broken as you're hoping

That I'm really not

I still opened up

And let you in

To a world I had been closing off

And that's not easy

I feel abandoned

Yet I could be better

Off with you

Than without you



But now we don't talk much, if ever

You say it's me

That I did it all

So why am I

Feeling like I've given

Cuz you made me fall

Yet taken back

By you giving back never

If you worry about causing me pain

Know I only get better



I only hope for an ending

Not so painful

But enough to walk away

Because I think that you'r hurting

As much as I am

And maybe more
