A cacaphony of promises
From a distance
Seeming sweet and true
Are little more than empty
Until
Time has lent them proof
Resistance is met
It's easier to assume the worst
Than die
Expecting the best
A roomful of eyes
None sparkle
A world full of colours
All in subdued hues
Potential for happiness
Not to be in absence of you
'All I do is think about you,
Hear your name and I start, start to cry,
There's just no getting over you'
And I wouldn't want to
If my feelings for you
Were a 'True/False' test
You could take it like Linus
And say
'I trued it'
I love you. True
I need you. True
I'll never be truly happy without you. True
I miss you more than I thought I could miss anything. True
I can't imagine anyone else in my life. True
You're the paramount example of woman. True
I won't hurt you. True
You don't have to believe me
Not now
You can 'Oh God' me to death
That's fine
I know
I believe
I'll be no dirtier when I come back to you
I'm not so young anymore
I can't be a womanizer anyway
All I need is you
And without you
I don't want anyone
I promise.
