begged

All that I want is to know undoubtedly

That you just have eyes for me

Could you make it clear?

All that I want is to sit here silently

And watch movies on TV

What a shame, you're not here

Here to witness my devotion

And my endless well of needs

I'm an anchor in the ocean

You know I could never leave

So, I'm patient, you're learning

Pretend it's not hurting, oh, woah

'Cause they say it's a virtue

To not let good love slip away

So, I'm cool and forgiving

I'll take what you're giving, oh, woah

But nothing's quite enough

When I know that to get it, I begged

Yeah, to get it, I begged

And I have this thought

When I lay in bed at night

That I feel trapped inside my life

Is that a normal thing

To fight back the waves

Of a static lover's dread?

I'm overwhelmed, I'm underfed

And yet I still cling

Cling to hope like snow on mountains

Careless words melt it away

I'm a penny in a fountain

Just waiting on my luck to change

So, I'm patient, you're learning

Pretend it's not hurting, oh, woah

'Cause they say it's a virtue

To not let good love slip away

So, I'm cool and forgiving

I'll take what you're giving, oh, woah

But nothing's quite enough

When I know that to get it, I begged

Yeah, to get it, I begged
