Feel

I know I don’t always say how I feel
Don’t always keep one foot in the real world
I lie sometimes, just like everybody else
But that’s just life
I ask if you’re okay too much, even though I know how much you hate that
You fill a space in my heart when you’re near
And I feel a joy in my soul when you’re near
A thousand words, flying apologies
I know you say things you don’t mean
In the heat of the moment, when you can’t control it and I can’t stop wondering
But if you’ve forgotten, or I am mistaken
Remember we started something
You keep your defences and my head’s always a mess
But I need you permanently
You fill a space in my heart when you’re near
And I feel a joy in my soul when you’re near
