From your silence
I guess you've drawn a line through my name
Temporary blindness
Has prevented me from doing the same
My friends worry about me
I guess I haven't gotten my fill
Maybe someday I'll erase you
I don't know if I can or will
What we had could've been unique
But your pride put that to sleep
Next time I won't get so deep
With someone whose mind is not complete
This is no way for me to get closer to you
When you've all but said that we are through
This is no way for me to get closer to you
Don't confuse my asking with begging you
This is no way
This is no way
From your hesitation
I guess your life has no need for a change
Temporary highness
Fades and afterwards all you have is the shame
My friends try and warn me
Even though I know it's wrong
My mind still tells me
There's a reason to keep hanging on
What we had could've been unique
But your pride put that to sleep
Next time I won't get that deep
With someone whose mind is not complete
This is no way for me to get closer to you
When you've all but said that we are through
This is no way for me to get closer to you
Don't confuse my asking with begging you
This is no way
This is no way
This is no way for me to get closer to you
When you've all but said that we are through
This is no way for me to get closer to you
Don't confuse my asking with begging you
This is no way
This is no way
Before you start comparing me to your new boyfriend
Remember that we never really had a chance to begin
So don't say he does all the things I would do if I were there
'Cause you truly don't know how much of me I'd share
What we had could've been unique
But your pride put that to sleep
Next time I won't get so deep
With someone whose mind is not complete
This is no way for me to get closer to you
When you've all but said that we are through
This is no way for me to get closer to you
Don't confuse my asking with begging you
This is no way
This is no way
This is no way for me to get closer to you
When you've all but said that we are through
This is no way for me to get closer to you
Don't confuse my asking with begging you
This is no way
This is no way
